It shares the island of New Guinea with Indonesia (the world\u2019s largest-population Muslim majority country), but about 95% of Papua New Guineans claim adherence to some form or denomination of Christianity. In many cases there is Bible teaching mixed with traditional spiritist beliefs. Just a little larger than California or Japan, PNG has a fewer people than other areas of it size (recently passing 8 million in population)\u2026 only about 13% of the people live in urban areas, making it the world\u2019s most rural nation. It is also one of the most diverse countries, with over 800 distinct people groups and languages. The people we are focusing on reaching \u2014 the Chinese \u2014 suffer a lot of prejudice and discrimination from the locals, but someone needs to show them the love of Christ! We plan to live in the capital city, Port Moresby, which has the rare distinction of being one of the World\u2019s Top 10 Least Livable Cities. Crime and corruption are common topics in the daily news, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ can change lives for the
