Nila is the oldest parish in the Solomons. It was started in 1899 by the Marist Missionaries.
Above are shown the new Nila Church, which was to have been completed for the 1999 Centenary celebrations but sadly there are defects in the roof design, making it unsafe.
the current church is shown immediately above.
Here we see Fathers Teodoro and Gerome. They are both Missionaries from the Philipines. Fr. Teodoro has returned home and Fr. Gerome has just arrived.
