Maria Lanakila Catholic Church is a parish of the Catholic Church of Hawaii in the United States. Located in Lahaina on the island of Maui, the church falls under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Honolulu and its bishop. The parish has a mission in Kapalua under the title of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Maria Lanakila means "Victorious Mary", the Hawaiian language equivalent to the English language epithet "Our Lady of Victory", which refers to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The first Catholic priests arrived on Maui on April 21, 1846. The pastor was Fr. Aubert Bouillon of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. A temporary church was built on the site, with a new structure dedicated September 8, 1858. In 1927–1928 a concrete church was built on the original foundation. The pastor as of 2020 was Missionaries of Faith Father Kuriakose Nadooparambil.{{cite web |url=https://www.hawaiicatholicherald.com/2020/06/10/new-pastors-administrators-for-9-parishes/ |title=Hawaii Catholic Herald |work=official web site |date=10 June 2020 |access-date=2020-08-15 }} The church was a contributing property of the Lahaina Historic District, designated a National Historic Landmark District on December 29, 1962.{{citation|title=National Register of Historic Places/National Historic Landmark 1974 Update: Lahaina / Lahaina (historic district)|url={{NHLS url|id=66000302}} |format=pdf|date=December 21, 1973 |author=Russell A.
