Who they are

The Gawanga are an Indigenous people living in the forests and hills of the Sepik region of Papua New Guinea. They speak Kwanga and organize community life around subsistence farming and local traditions. Although they have been exposed to the Christian message for generations, many still lack biblical discipleship that transforms everyday life at its roots.
