Samoa is an country comprising the westernmost group of the Samoan Islands, in Polynesia. While missionaries officially arrived in 1830, a number of Samoans had already become followers of Jesus due to shipwrecked sailors. Most Samoans converted to the new religion, and Samoan missionaries played a large role in evangelizing other pacific people groups. The Church in Samoa suffers from nominalism, and the various denominations are plagued by rivalry, pride, and conflict, which divide and weaken.
➢ Pray for church leaders across all denominations to embrace one another in love.
➢ Ask that the Lord will strengthen every tendency for good works to encourage the weak in faith.
