The International Mission in Papua New Guinea began in 2003. The population of PNG is around eight million. Considered a Christian nation, its Catholics number around two million. The Church in PNG is comparatively young, facing many challenges. It needs the help of the missionaries to grow and develop. The Vincentians are engaged in two important ministries: the spiritual formation of the diocesan seminarians at Holy Spirit Seminary to which we have contributed substantially since 2001 and pastoral care of the faithful at Saint Michel’s Parish since 2006. Both are located in Bomana. We also will be taking up responsibility for parishes/missions in other dioceses. The confreres working in PNG would like to have more members. There are many possibilities
for evangelization and social development. Anybody with full commitment and willing to face challenges is most welcome to join our efforts in PNG.
