Who they are
The Lelepa live on the small island of Lelepa and in neighboring coastal areas in the Vanuatu archipelago in the South Pacific. With a strong Melanesian heritage and deep connections to the sea and the land, they preserve their traditional language and live in villages united by mutual cooperation. The Christian faith has been part of local community life for generations.
