“As Christians have proclaimed for 2,000 years: He is risen! It is a joy to celebrate Easter and the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ on this special Sunday. 

During this Holy Week, we can count our many blessings, from the happy moments of daily life to our most cherished beliefs that we share among Christians. 

Thank you to our pastors and congregations in American Samoa as you lead us in worship and growth in faith. 

May God bless our islands as we celebrate the Resurrection together in unity and peace. Have a blessed Easter Sunday!

“He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.” Matthew 28:6
