Carmelites in Papua New Guinea

On October 19, 2008, the Philippine Carmelite Commissariat opened its new mission to Papua New Guinea. Three Filipino Carmelites were sent as pioneers to this mission — Fr. Perfecto Adeva, Jr., Fr. Reynold Caigoy, and Fr. Edwin Magbago — all of whom continue to serve the PNG Mission today. The year 2021 saw the presbyteral ordination of Paul Kaptain — the first fruit of the PNG mission and now a member of the St. Albert Carmelite Community of Papua New Guinea.
