SYDNEY (SBS Television / Pacific Media Watch): A group of New Caledonians have just completed an historic trip to the Torres Strait islands.

Their journey reconnected family and descendants who brought Christianity to the region in the late 19th Century, known as the Coming of the Light.

Stefan Armbruster was on Erub for this remarkable family reunion.
