"In October [2013], the Melanesian Brotherhood, along with friends, supporters and local dignitaries marked the 10th anniversary of the deaths of the group of brothers known as the Melanesian Martyrs. These men were murdered by militants after they had tried to locate one of their number who had been taken hostage". [Text of entire article.]

"The Melanesian Brotherhood at Tabalia together with the church members, family and friends, attended the blessing and dedication by Primate of the Church of Melanesia, Archbishop David Vunagi of their new $1.3. 600-seater Saint Luke Chapel at MBH [Melanesian Brotherhood] headquarters. Support for it came from Melanesia and around the Anglican Communion". [Text of entire article.]
The author remembers and mourns the death of seven members of the Melanesian Brotherhood whom he met on a recent trip to the Church of the Province of Melanesia. "We pray that the blood of their martyrdom will, as T.S. Elliot tells us in `Murder in the Cathedral', plant the seed for the church of the future. Following the commands of Jesus Christ is never easy. Look at our Christian and indeed Anglican brothers and sisters in the Holy Land, the Congo or indeed in many places where all hope seems to be lost. So often the central core of our work for the Gospel is diminished by unimportant issues on the periphery of life. Matthew 25 reminds us of our mission mandate: `When I was hungry you gave me food, when I was thirsty you gave me something to drink, when I was a stranger you welcomed me ...' . The Melanesian Brotherhood today reminds us what it means to live in the fullness of the Gospel".
Canon John Peterson attended the two week long General Synod of the Church of Melanesia which began 20 October 2002. Among the decisions of the synod was one to ordain women to all three orders of ministry. "This decision, however, is the first stage of a lengthy process required to change the Constitution. The next stage will be for each of the eight Diocesan Synods to consent, which would be followed by a full report being received at the next General Synod meeting in 2005". A Eucharist at the synod also marked the official end of the Melanesian Brotherhood's involvement with the Royal Solomon Police Force as part of the official Peace and Reconciliation process on Guadalcanal. The Brothers are not, however, withdrawing from their general ministry of peace and reconciliation.
