Aloha!
Welcome to our website! Malia Puka O Kalani is a place where the traditions of Hawaii have been able to sustain a distinct identity.
Located in the small community of Keaukaha on the edge of Hilo, on land set aside for native Hawaiians known as the Hawaiian Homelands, Malia is a place where the rich culture and traditions of Hawaii have been kept alive.
In 1972 the parish was on the verge of closing; however, thanks to Father George DeCosta and a small group of dedicated parishioners, Malia is now a bustling parish serving the community in a myriad of ways.
One of the many remarkable accomplishments of Malia has been the Big Island Liturgy and Arts Conference. This conference has attracted many of today's brightest and best known composers and artists. Many other activities go on that help inspire and enhance this community of Keaukaha.
