Blessing of the Chapel of St. Joseph
On August 15, Bp. Pedro Baquero SDB, bishop of Kerema, assisted by Fr. Joseph Thanh, parish priest, blessed the Chapel dedicated to St. Joseph at Akapiru Village in the Parish of Mary Help of Christians, Araimiri.
The Salesian pioneers in PNG arrived in Araimiri in 1980. Since then they have laboured to build up the Catholic communities that make up the parish of Araimiri.
Don Bosco was creative, enthusiastic and enterprising in his work. He wrote and edited booklets, school texts, histories, digests, magazines, fliers, plays. From his earliest years as a priest, Don Bosco communicated through his whole demeanour and person, through games, talking, visiting, preaching, and publishing. Communicating through the internet and publishing is a priority for Salesians. Inspired by this example of Don Bosco and the early Salesians, Social Communication continues an important priority.
