WMF Papua New Guinea serves rural communities in Papua New Guinea through evangelism, discipleship, and sustainable development. We are called to respond in obedience to the incarnational gospel of Jesus Christ – to enter into holistic relationship with communities and participate in His work of reconciliation and discipleship.
WMF PNG live in the village of Baku and partner with the Yamano speaking community in five villages in addressing felt needs and offering learning and discipleship opportunities. We are currently in the process of building a Community Development Center where we have already hosted classes to train literacy workers, events facilitating interdenominational prayer and cooperation, and skills training opportunities. Our staff members are walking alongside our village of Baku in building a clean water system to supply the whole village and we are partnering with our village of Kumbawe to build a market structure and to help the primary school teachers in their English skills. As we grow in relationship, language fluency, and trust, we have had the opportunity both to support and learn from our community and to partner with Yamano believers in outreach to surrounding language groups. We are so blessed to live and walk with our Lord here in the "Land of the Unexpected".
