FSM History

San Felix church is dedicated at Wanyan.

What happened

The Wanyan church, the last founded by the Spanish Capuchins on Yap, had caused a dispute when villagers first resisted it. When it opened, Wanyan was at war with its old rival Gachpar, and the missionaries called the residence “the house of peace” in hope of better relations.
