Paray Neighbourhood
The Vanuatu Rainbow Lodge is located in Paray, an area which is under the influence of the Marist Missionary Society. This Catholic parish name actually comes from Paray-le-Monial, a famous French pilgrimage destination located in Burgundy.
The Immaculate Heart of Mary annual celebration takes place on a Saturday in June. It is a festive day starting with a grand mass, then by a shared lunch and it is followed with numerous activities such as traditional dances, kava drinking and local dance.
