Moresby

From Our Own Correspondent ST. John’s Anglican Church, Port Moresby, is now a pro-cathedral, and the Rector (the Rev. H.

Randall) has been appointed the first residentiary canon.

Canon Randall has explained that the Mother Church of the Diocese of New Guinea is at Dogura. The Bishop (the Rt. Rev.

P. N. W. Strong) now has seats at Dogura and Port Moresby.

The inauguration ceremonies at St. John’s will be held in the near future.

It is hoped that the foundation of Port Moresby’s new cathedral will be laid at the end of this year.
