Ramu Valley Academy (Phase 2)
Project Number: PPG030
About RVA
Ramu Valley Academy (RVA) exists to provide secondary education centered on God’s Word. We focus on building critical thinking, character and turning hearts towards Jesus and the Great Commission. We are preparing future faithful local servants to bring the gospel to unreached people groups.
The focus of this project is to build facilities needed for RVA’s next phase of growth.
First Priority: Multi-Purpose Open-Space Assembly Hall, Church Facility, Recreation Center
The multi-purpose open-air assembly hall will be a vital space where all students can gather for worship, assemblies and recreation. The space will also be used for our on-campus church services.
Right now, RVA has no single covered area large enough for the entire school community to come together as one body to worship, learn and enjoy sports while protected from the intense heat and seasonal monsoons. This pavilion will provide a safe, functional gathering place for decades.
Second Priority: Library
The Ramu Valley Academy Library will be a critical, dedicated space for students to grow in the Word as they study the Bible and learn about His/God’s creation and how to live a righteous life. RVA students will also use this space to gain technical knowledge they need to lead Papua New Guinea as pastors, teachers, doctors, lawyers, mechanics and, more importantly, husbands, fathers, wives and mothers. RVA is committed to ensuring they have reading resources and space to study, learn and grow. The library will give students access and space. Come grow their minds with us through the library initiative!

How You'll Be Helping
The long-term goal of this initiative is to equip local Papua New Guinean boys and girls in order to grow strong in character and mind through quality education and personal discipleship. They can then return to their communities to reach the unreached in places where many Westerners are unable or unwilling to go. Your support will enable the Academy to shape hearts, minds and souls while preparing them for a greater role in fulfilling the Great Commission in their home country.
We believe that, when properly educated and holistically equipped, the second-generation children from the Ramu Valley churches will not only participate in but eventually lead evangelical and missional efforts in their home country.
