Who they are
The Lokep are an island community living on coastal islands in Papua New Guinea. With a rich maritime heritage, they preserve their own language and traditional customs in close-knit villages. Although most of the population professes the Christian faith, they face the ongoing challenge of deepening biblical discipleship and overcoming the geographical isolation of their islands.
