Moresby South MP donates K100, 000 to Church

Port Moresby South Member, Justin Tkatchenko has donated K100, 000 to the Kaugere United Church in South Side, this morning.

PM Tkachenko said church pastors and congregations are the unsung heroes who do a silent sacrifice for the people in their community to live a better life.

Tkatchenko donated the K100, 000 to the Reverend of the church with the congregation, saying K50, 000 must be used to renovate and upgrade the 54-year-old church building and the other K50, 000 to be used to build Reverend's house.

"Kaugere is one of the pioneers of Moresby South and I am happy to help the community with this donation

"Churches are a key pinnacle to change behaviors that play an important role in the community by teaching peace that brings about stability to the livelihood of the people.

"A community is at peace, when there is word of God in the community." Tkatchenko said.

Kaugere United Church Reverend, Paul Baiau thanked MP Tkatchenko and said the donation was a seed he planted in God's kingdom.

"It is a blessing for the community and the congregation to receive this donation, and I will promise that the money funded will be put to good use and finish the job," Reverend Baiau said.
