bringing Peace, Safety, Security and sustainability in our Communities, Provinces and the
nation Solomon Islands”. the Archbishop said.

a sense that you are physically involved in providing peace when someone fights”.

Solomons (DOCS), which was located in the Central Islands Province from the 15th to 17th September.
