Fiji
THE new church which has been built at the foot of the CSR Company’s residential hill, in Labasa, Vanua Levu, Fiji, was opened on July 26, and will be re-dedicated during the next visit of the Bishop.
Previous to May 25, two church build ings existed —both situated away from the centre of the district. The older building, known as All Saints’ Church, was dedicated by Bishop Twitchwell in 1918; the other, originally used by lady members of the staff as residential quar ters, was latterly used for services in Hindi.
Demolition of the old buildings began on May 25, and the new church began to take shape under the direction of Mr.
B. Williams. Its appearance on the opening day was pleasing, but much remains to be done in the grounds. Mr.
H. B. Gibson has promised to give a
lych gate.
