The North Guadalcanal Constituency (NGC) Office provided financial assistance totalling $100,000.00 to two churches last week, according to a statement published on the Solomon Islands Government portal on 24 September 2026.

The statement said $50,000.00 went to All Saints of Melanesia Bubulu Anglican Church and $50,000.00 to Saint Mary Metapona Anglican Church, and that the NGC Office operates under the leadership of Honourable Dr. Paul Bosawai, Member of Parliament for NGC.

Constituency Development Officer Simon Ngoli said the assistance reflected the NGC Office's ongoing dedication to supporting churches, particularly the two churches as they prepare for their consecrations in October and November this year, the statement said.

"Churches play a vital role in bringing hope, unity, and service to our communities. We remain committed to providing resources wherever possible to help them succeed in their mission," Mr Ngoli said in the statement.

According to the statement, Mr Ngoli extended congratulations to both church communities on behalf of Dr. Bosawai and the constituency office. "Preparing a church for consecration requires immense shared sacrifice, fundraising, and physical labour, and both communities have demonstrated what can be achieved through unity and faith," he said.

The statement said Saint Mary Metapona Anglican Church will hold its official consecration in October 2026, while All Saints of Melanesia Bubulu Anglican Church will hold its own in November 2026.

The funding came from the Solomon Islands Government through the Ministry of Rural Development's Constituency Development Programme, under the NGC Office's 2026 CDF budget allocation and in compliance with Section 26(2)(d) and (3)(d) of the CDF Act 2023, the statement said. It added that the CDF is administered by the MRD and implemented across all 50 constituencies to improve rural livelihoods.
