This is a lively congregation, meeting for services every Sunday, as well as weekly Bible Studies in members' homes. There are other congregations and small groups in Nadi, Ra and Taveuni.

Vanuatu

The greatest concentration of members is on the island of Malekula where we have a life development program in the village of Rory. In addition to the church activities which focus on the annual Christian family festival, we have provided a self-contained water supply by building a large tank to contain rainwater harvested from the roof of the meeting hall, and a building for women’s activities and the promotion of economic livelihood activities. The New Zealand churches have provided long term funding and manpower in the development of these projects.
