Text transcribed from caption: C-29824 MAKES PERPETUAL VOWS ROME -- Sister Josepha Nangumaia (left), a native New Guinean, was one of seven young women who recently pronounced their final and perpetual vows as Sisters of the Rosary, a new order of religious in New Guinea. She is shown here three years ago on a trip to Rome with Sister Aloisa Imbue (right) and Sister Eurista Lohmanns, a Holy Spirit Missionary, who is co-foundress, novice mistress and superior general of the new order. Founder of the order is Bishop Leo Arkfeld, S.V.D., head of the Wewak vicariate. Sister Josepha was among the seven young women who 12 years ago became the first members of the congregation which now numbers some 30. Their rule, as well as religious garb, is specially adapted to New Guinea conditions. The order’s members specialize in teaching and nursing.
