HISTORY
In the early 1950's about 30 brothers volunteered to undertake preaching in the tropical islands.
Among them were Tom and Rowena Kitto, who soon found themselves in Papua, where there were at that time no Witnesses. They started their work among the Europeans in Port Moresby.
Before long, they were spending evenings in Hanuabada the "Big Village," with a group of 30 to 40 Papuans who were hungry for spiritual truth.
From them, word spread to other villages. In a short time, the Kerema people sent a delegation asking that a Bible study be conducted with them.
Then a headman from Haima came, pleading: "Please come and teach my people about the truth!"
And so it spread.
