Haumāna (hā'u-mā'-na)
(n.) Student, pupil, apprentice, recruit, disciple (Mat 10:1)*
"Haumāna" is the Hawaiian equivalent of the english word "disciple." This name was chosen for our church because Jesus commanded His first haumāna to go and make haumāna of all nations (Mat 28:19-20). As haumāna of Jesus today, we believe this name best represents who we seek to be as a church in Central Maui. To be, make, and equip haumāna (disciples, followers) of Jesus.

Pastor Matt Brunk
Aloha! If we haven’t met before, I’d like to introduce myself and my family. My name is Matt, and my wife’s name is Katie. We have a daughter (Leilani) and a son (Kaliko).
We've had the privilege of calling Hawaii home for many years now. For several years, my wife and I served as youth leaders at Ohana Baptist Church in Oahu. After Ohana Baptist ordained me into the ministry, I was sent from that church to start this church.
As pastor of Haumāna Baptist Church, my heart is to help you understand the Bible and live as a haumāna of Jesus. I believe it’s ok not to have your faith all figured out yet, and it’s ok to ask questions. I’ll be the first to admit I don’t have all the answers personally, but I believe the Bible does.
I look forward to meeting you at one of our church's Sunday gatherings. If you want to connect before then, text or call me at 808.500.4478.
