Papua New Guinea
We are committed to working with churches and likeminded organizations to see lives and communities transformed, as we proclaim and demonstrate the gospel message of Jesus.
The OM team in PNG was started with Papua New Guineans as a result of missionary exposure with OM internationally in India, Pakistan and on OM ships, Logos and Doulos. In 1990, after 11 years of missionary burden sparked by the first visit of the Logos in 1979 there was a growing awareness and interest among the Christians churches in PNG to reach the unreached.
Our Ministries:
- Mission Training – Every year we run missionary training program for new recruits for who are called to go as missionaries in PNG or cross culturally. The course is a month long and covers topics like introduction to world religions, cultural intelligence, food, language and OM values and ethos for people who want to join OM overseas.
- Mobilization – We actively engage in mobilizing the church and Christians to participate in the mission.
- Relief and Development Projects – We are actively involved in helping to alleviate poverty and sufferings of those affected by natural and manmade disasters and other community development projects. In 2024, we assisted over 500 people in Mulitaka and over 500 people affected by ethnic conflict in Yangoru, East Sepik Province. We have also launched Lydia Project, which focus of supporting widows start their micro projects to support themselves and their families.
