Bishop Ponen Paul Kubi, CSC, DD is head of the Diocese of Mymensingh.

In 1909, five Garo leaders made a long trip down to Dhaka to ask the Catholic Bishops to send them a priest.

On 19 March 1911, Father Francis reaped the first fruits with 21 Catholic baptisms at Tausalpara.

Until 1918, Father Francis was practically always alone, tramping the Garo country from east to west, covering the 90 miles strip of territory, where in the following twenty-five years a total of six parishes were established.

Ponen Paul Kubi CSC (at the time Director of the Pobitra Krush Sadhana Griha, Rampura, Dhaka) was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Mymensingh and consecrated in Mymensingh on 13 February 2004.
