Last Dec 14, 2018 the Rector Major, Fr. Angel Fernandéz Artime has accepted the request of Archbishop of Rabaul to entrust to the Salesians the new parish that will be created when the Cathedral parish of Vunapope will be divided. The new parish that will be created will initially be composed of the communities of Palnakaur, Livuan, Bitagalip, Kabaleo, Ramale and Katakatai.
The Rector Major had asked as well that a congregation of sisters belonging to the Salesian Family be invited to work with us.
