Hi Kamee! Your heart to volunteer with us means a lot so I am sorry to tell you that we are not working in Papua New Guinea and have no plans to at this time. This FAQ will help to explain why. I hope that you get to go to Papua New Guinea and that the Lord opens up some amazing opportunities for you there! Jacquie

I was wondering if it is possible to begin a Compassion project in the independent country of Papua New Guinea? Future plans could land me there for a few years and I would love to volunteer in any way that I can. Are you allowed in this country? Thank you

I love this testimony! This is one of many stories that tell us about miraculous things that GOD has done in HIS land trough HIS churches and Compassion in East Indonesia!

Kelina lives in West Papua, which is in eastern Indonesia.

Greater testimonies have yet to come from East Indonesia 

What an amazing transformation! God can do such wonderful things in our hearts and lives. I didn’t know there was a CSP in New Guinea…that’s great!

I am so blessed to read these wonderful encouraging stories of restoration. I am a sri lankan and would like to know how to contact your office in Sri Lanka.

Chris, I was also confused about the location, so thanks for clarifying.

This is a good story. The truth is, Jesus is the difference in every one of our lives, and He is to be praised for turning this mother and her family around!

Andrew,

I deleted your comments because I deemed them irrelevant to the subject of the story.

This post is not about the denial of human rights to any group of people.

Despite that, I would have let the comments stay if I felt the tone was conversational and driven by a desire to educate and discuss the subject as opposed to being agenda driven.

Sara,

Sri Lanka is the only country we work in that does not have the child sponsorship program, that only has the child survival program.

Thanks you so much for this story! Just yesterday I sponsored a CSP in Haiti. It neat to hear actual stories of how the projects are changing lives of the parents and their children.
Other than Sri Lanka, does Compassion work in any countries just in the CSP?

-and thanks for the clarification, I was thinking Papua New Guinea too

It’s so wonderful to read about Kelina’s transformation!
