Who they are
The Keriaka are an indigenous people who inhabit the tropical forests of Bougainville Island in Papua New Guinea. They speak Ramopa, maintain strong community ties, and lead lives centered on farming. Although the Christian faith is part of their collective identity, they face the challenge of deepening biblical discipleship in their own native language.
