The campus was huge and our greeting was in traditional warrior dance welcome, which led us to the staff room at the school.<\/p>\n

The Eucharist was celebrated in real style and dedication, about 1000 people attending, 800 of which were school students. The Papua New Guinea Martyrs<\/a> were remembered and candles lit for each of them.<\/p>\n

A whole afternoon of dances and speeches followed with gifts for us all.<\/p>\n

In the evening we had a farewell dinner with Bishop Lynsley and his wife, Felicity and the team. We were presented with gifts, hats, large wood carvings. The bishops gave gifts from our dioceses too and all pilgrims left small gifts for the school and the women.<\/p>\n
