    VIDEO: Tongan American Talks About Faith, Family and Service

    Ilaisaane Siale has just finished her service as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Papeete, Tahiti.

    She has spent the last eighteen months serving the Tahitian people and bringing the restored gospel of Jesus Christ to French Polynesia. 

    Now back home in Oakland, California (USA), Ilaisaane feels her mission has given her a broader perspective of who she is and how she will view and serve those around her.

    She soon will attend Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah (USA) to continue her education on an academic scholarship and hopes to major in social services.

    Mormon missionaries can be seen on the streets of hundreds of major cities in the world as well as in thousands of smaller communities. They serve along side their neighbours and friends as they strive to become more like the Saviour.

    Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is the Saviour of the world and the Son of God.
