Samoans From Around the World Reunite

“Families are Forever” is Celebrated

Gatoloai family members from many parts of the world recently reunited in Samoa.

                    

They held their very first family reunion and celebrated being together again on 28 December 2017 in Aai O Niue.

Wearing shirts bearing the motto “Families Are Forever”, a tenet that is central to their Church’s beliefs, they focused on their ancestors and recognized the many sacrifices they made for them.

As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it's important to them to remember their roots and those that went before.
