OM in PNG was started with Papua New Guineans because of missionary exposure through OM internationally in India, Pakistan, and OM's first 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 Christian churches in PNG to reach the unreached.
We want to see vibrate communities of Jesus followers amongst the least reached.
We aim to:
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.
Mobilisation - 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.
The office is run by a team of five people. We have a very small team and are praying for more locals to join the office to serve the ever-growing interest of PNGers going on the mission field. For more information please contact
