Solomon Islands Mission coordinator Pastor Irving Vagha says there are just three Seventh Day Adventists on the far eastern island of Anuta
Recently they built a small church against the wishes of the island's chief, who then demanded they pull it down and has ordered them to leave the predominantly Anglican island.
Pastor Vagha says the president of the church is trying to meet with his Anglican counterpart to find some resolution.
"They are just having this kind of mentality that they don't want any other religion infiltrated into the island but just the Anglican faith because that has been the faith that was accepted by their ancestors so to speak."
