What is the Kobon Ministry?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reaching a Generation for Jesus...
The Kobon Ministry seeks to share God's Word with the Kobon and Haruai peoples of Papua New Guinea. This
is accomplished through Bible translation and literacy work.   Beginning in 1972, missionaries John Davies and
wife Maila have worked to translate the New Testament into the language of the Kobon people of a remote
mountainous region of Papua New Guinea. This translation will serve not only the Kobon people, but will also
be a resource text for translation of Holy Scripture into other languages and dialects in the region.  The
translation is now complete and the Word of God may now be shared in the people's own language!
