PENTECOST SUNDAY - ST MICHAEL ON HIS WAY TO TUMLEO ISLAND

       Fr Michael’s (Spiritan Congregation - our Parish Priest) celebrated their feast                today. Here the Sisters are wishing him blessings on his feast day.

             National Religious who stayed with us on Friday and Saturday evening. Some had travelled from Port Moresby. Most of them have family here in Aitape.

           These are the police who will escort the car carrying St Michael. They were             each getting someone to take a photo of themselves in front to St Michael.

           Sr Schol’s nephew was there for the action too. Fr Michael has his back to the camera. The little children always have a ready smile!

           St Michael is on his way at last to Tumleo Island! The installation will take place on the feast of St Michael on 29th September. Today there was a special mass and will be taken in procession around the Island and then placed in a temporary shrine. The permanent Shrine will be on the top of the hill on Tumleo. Now we return home to commence putting away chapel things that were used for the Vigil Mass on Saturday evening.
