Polynesian Pioneers
Polynesians are people of great faith and obedience. We have ancestral connections with the people mentioned in the Book of Mormon, who are descendants of Abraham and are heirs to the blessings promised to Abraham's descendants. Our faith, dedication, and cultural heritage contribute to the strength and growth of the Church worldwide.
Just like the early pioneers who sacrificed for their beliefs, Polynesian Latter-day Saints are pioneers in their own right, carrying the torch of faith and service for future generations. While our Polynesian ancestors did not walk the plains of Wyoming pulling handcarts like the latter-day saint pioneers, they are rightly pioneers in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our connection to the gospel of Jesus Christ and contributions to the Church's global mission make our Polynesian people an integral part of its history and bright future.
To Our Youth
Be the Torchbearers of Your Heritage - Embrace Your Past, Illuminate Your Future. Just as your ancestors ventured into the unknown to spread the gospel, you, as Pacific Pioneers, have the opportunity to blaze new trails. Your faith, service, and cultural legacy are the foundations of your journey. Embrace who you are, honor your heritage, and let your light shine to inspire others.
