I am always listening out for news reports from remote regions to check that I have them on PW33's Prayer Calendar list. Recently I have picked up on Islands so remote that I missed them in my initial search a year or so ago. Last month there was a story running on the most isolated island in the world in the South Atlantic, Tristan da Cunha, and this month an archipelago of islands in the Indian Ocean known as the Chagos Archipelago. The Chagos Islands have had a 50-year sovereignty dispute, this was settled this week on the 3rd of October when UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer agreed to the handover of this territory to Mauritius.
Both Tristan da Cunha, and The Chagos Islands have now been updated to PW33's Prayer Calendar list, and as it happens, Tristan da Cunha coincides geographically to be part of this month's Prayer Calendar.
