The Papua New Guinea Council of Churches (PNGCC) has congratulated the Government, private sector and non-government organisations for successfully ending the year.
PNGCC, on behalf of Christians nationwide, congratulated Prime Minister Peter O’Neill and the Members of Parliament for having carefully navigated the nation through uncharted waters this year.
The Council also thanked all business houses and private sector for successfully ending another year of providing services to the people of PNG.
General Secretary of the PNGCC, Rev. Roger Joseph, thanked all churches, faith based organisations and NGOs for being there for the people.
“We strongly believe that without the code of moral ethics you impart in people, we would have a wild nation uncontrolled.
“As we wish you all a very Merry Christmas, we also wish the Government a successful National Elections in 2017,” Rev. Joseph said.
“We also wish and pray that the grace and mercy of God will grant PNG a prosperous New Year 2017.”
PNGCC also encourages Papua New Guineans to join their families to share the joy, peace, love and spirit of Christmas.
