Description
The Painted Church, officially known as St. Benedict Roman Catholic Church, was painted by Father John Velghe after his arrival from Belgium in 1899. He had no formal training as an artist, and used house paint. Few Hawaiians at the time could read, so he taught them with his paintings. The church is a very popular and peaceful spot to visit in South Kona, Hawaii. For more information about the church, visit their website by typing thepaintedchurchhawaii.org in your search engine.
