"The beginnings of the Church in Oceania were the actions of the providence of God. Reflecting on our present and preparing for the future benefits from recalling the elements of the beginning of the Church in Oceania. A methodology is needed to achieve this. The method of "lectio divina" could provide the basis of such a methodology. The path of the Church to be opened by Christ will become clear when there is meditation and contemplation upon the situation of the Church."
