The HPBC Executive Board met on May 15, 2026, at our Honolulu offices with members joining both in person and via Zoom.
Financial Health & Stewardship
The board received and approved HPBC’s 2025 audit, presented by CW Associates. The audit resulted in a clean, unmodified opinion on all financial statements, reflecting faithful stewardship by Monica Kang, the executive director-treasurer, and the staff team. An encouraging financial report also showed Cooperative Program giving through the first four months of 2026 tracking ahead of last year.
Strategic Ministry Advancement
Executive Director-Treasurer Craig Webb reported encouraging ministry progress across HPBC, including nine active Send Network church plants, a well-attended Pastors Retreat with Mark Hallock, and several upcoming opportunities. These include Church Health Conferences in Oahu and American Samoa, the launch of Hawaii Pacific School of Theology classes this fall, and the 84th Annual Meeting in November themed, “To Christ Be Glory — To Every Generation” (Ephesians 3:20–21).
Board Committee Work
Board committees shared updates on several key initiatives, including seminary scholarships and the Hawaii Pacific School of Theology partnership, facility maintenance and improvement projects, communication and abuse prevention efforts, disability and special needs planning, and administrative work related to leadership evaluations, board nominations, and committee assignments.
Personnel Policy Handbook Update
The board approved a revised HPBC Personnel Policy Handbook, marking the first comprehensive update since 2010. This important revision strengthens organizational health and provides clearer guidance for staff and leadership.
