After 40 years of praying for development, prayers are being answered when new buildings were handed over to the Metago Bible College Campus at the Papa village in Central province. The new buildings were a part of the Metago Development Phase 1 that was launched in 2022. The Moderator, Reverend Bernard Siai in his speech mentioned their struggles over the past 40 years as he was extremely grateful for the gift to the college and strongly believes that this gesture was God at work. "Today we are here to see what God has done. This is all God's doing. Nothing is impossible with God." In his keynote address, the Member for Hiri-Koiari Keith Iduhu spoke passionately about Metago, saying that its story was one of resilience and innovation. "We talked about this development in April of 2021, at the time the task seemed almost impossible to complete. This is a true story of leadership and stewardship, and this is just the beginning of the Metago journey." "I believe this is a prophetic journey and, in my heart, I know that one day Metago Bible College will just be like UPNG, be the next flagship center of excellence." Vice Chairman of the Metago Council stated that for Development phase 1A and 1B, it cost K6. 1 million which was utilized to build 7 staff houses including the Principal's house, 6 duplex houses, students' dorms with a boarding capacity of 24 students at a time. The college also as a new Capel named after Reverend Konio Morea Igo, who was one of the council members that had passed on. It also has a good road access to the school, a new classroom and a water reticulation system. Iga stated that Development phase 2 is estimated to cost around K13 million to K14 million, depending on funding and the new building designs for the school's resource centre or library. He added that the school will be acquiring another 20 hectares of land which will cater for Agriculture students that will be doing subsistence farming to sustain the school. The local Member Mr. Iduhu, handed over the new buildings to the Metago Bible College Moderator, Reverend Siai on Friday 20th October at the Metago Bible College Campus.
