About

Hukilani was created out of a story. A true life journey of pain, discovery, and passion. In 2003, an amazing young man bearing the name Hukilani passed from this world. I, Jeannie, was blessed to journey with this man for nearly 10 years. Before he died he asked me to write our story. I did, though the book is still being edited. But I could not stop there. Hukilani is more than a story. It is a movement to see the unseen, love those who feel unlovable, and challenge "us vs them" thinking. It is a movement of people pulling one another into freedom and toward heaven.
