Hi Fritz,

The Jacaranda dictionary of Melanesian Pidgin has a section on religious 
terms. But I am in Korea at the moment, so I can't tell you what those 
terms are. That is the closest I know of a dictionary of biblical 
vocabulary in PNG Pidgin. But I haven't worked in PNG for over 10 years, 
so there may be something else available now.
