Church Overview

A Growing Family of Faith Across Papua New Guinea

The Evangelical Church of Papua New Guinea (ECPNG) is a national Christian church made up of hundreds of local congregations across the country. We are a Christ-centered, Bible-believing, and mission-driven church with a passion to reach every community in PNG with the message of salvation and hope.

ECPNG began from humble beginnings in the 1940s through missionary work in remote villages. Today, the church has grown into one of the largest Protestant denominations in the country, with members from all four regions — Southern, Highlands, Momase, and New Guinea Islands.

What Makes Us Unique

We preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and believe the Bible is the final authority in life and faith.
We focus on discipleship, helping believers grow strong in their faith and live for God daily.
We build local churches, empowering members and leaders to serve their own communities.
We serve beyond the church walls, through schools, health centres, and ministries that touch lives.

Our Structure

ECPNG is organized into four main regions, each with its own provinces, districts, and local churches. Our national leadership works together with regional and local leaders to guide the spiritual direction of the church and support its ministries.

Our Mission

To share the Gospel, make disciples, and transform communities through the power of Jesus Christ.
