The Paschal Candle and Cross and the reason
of our  Jubilee pilgrimage 
Called and chosen 



60 years have passed since the Catholic Church has been recognized as the Apostolic Vicariate.   We recognize the initiative of God through the missionary passion of the Marist fathers from Bouganville to the Shortlands and Choiseul to plant the seed of Christianity, followed by the Dominican order as soon as the Apostolic Vicariate was established.

                                                                                                                                     bishop

Noro Anglicans and Catholics Combine to Celebrate Good Friday. (From Fr. Tony compiled by DoG media office).


At 10:30am on Good Friday 14th April; both the Anglicans and Catholics gathered to celebrate the Passion of the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ at Baru Noro.
The combine celebration was very devotional as young people, men, women and of course the kids show solidarity among these 2 churches.

Along the main
road the performance of the Lord’s passion played starting with the narrator’s intonation, in the garden. The heavy cross of 10’x6’ was laid on the shoulder of the central actor.

‘A very moving service, almost after a gap of about 20 years’ commented the ladies and the Anglicans, who had their worship in the morning, were encouraged to go to the Catholic church at 3.00 pm when the Noro Catholic community normally have the Veneration of the Cross.

And in Canaan a beautiful way of the cross was organized by the families living around that location.
Each station a cross with the picture of the particular station was placed.

After prayer and singing at each station, the cross is also carried in a procession and at the end of it, all the 14 crosses are heaped in one place to be burnt on Easter Vigil for the new fire and to light the Paschal candle from this fire. This reminds them their own failures of the past one year for all people to witness and be nail it all as the cross, trudge along the way carrying it, to help them purge the hurts and wounds, and finally burn it to lead a new life, purified by the fire of the Vigil.

Diocese of Gizo Expresses Gratitude for the Deaconate of Br. James Rapeka.


On the 9th of November, the Catholic Diocese of Gizo expressed gratitude to God for the gift of Brother James Rapeka from the Guadalcanal province, specifically from Tangarare parish, who has been ordained as a deacon.

Deacon James Rapeka

His ordination ceremony was attended by the parishioners of St. Peter, Gizo, along with his parents and relatives, who dedicated him to the Catholic Diocese of Gizo.

Under the guidance of our Most Rev. Bishop Peter Houhou, Brother James was ordained as a Deacon, with the support of Vicar General Fr. Steven Te’e, Fr. Henry Paroi OP, Fr. Michael Iotepa, and Fr. Dominic Soloko.

Deacon James Rapeka has selected a theme for his diaconate: “DO NOT BE AFRAID, FOR I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS.” (Jeremiah 1:8) – a message of hope and courage from our Lord, which reflects his faith in God’s presence and guidance as he responds to the call to serve His people through ministry, the proclamation of the Word, and charitable acts.

This special occasion was also attended by fellow seminarian brothers.
