Again, from Managing Director Keith Copley We are overwhelmed with the response to the call to pray for our Mibu brothers and sisters! God is working, because of those prayers.

From NTM PNG Managing Director Keith Copley Request for URGENT Prayer! The church among the Mibu people group of Papua New Guinea is calling on brothers and sisters around the world to PRAY.

I recently got to see the movie Ends of the Earth. It is a film produced by and about Mission Aviation Fellowship; it tells their story in the context of assisting Ethnos360 church planters. In the end, the Wano people are able to do outreaches because of the aviation support provided by MAF. It’s a […]

Recently a believer from a church plant delivered the Sunday message at our mission center church. Mr. Z has been long-associated with our mission, and he is a trusted and animated speaker. We don’t frequently have outside speakers since they are usually with their churches. He spoke in Tok Pisin, the trade language of the […]
