Widmore District.

Vanuatu – Christians have played a major role in helping to lead the country. Two of the main islands are named Espiritu Santo and Pentecost – appropriate for such a linguistically diverse nation. May the same Holy Spirit visit this nation powerfully.

Notting Hill and Harlesden District.
