American Samoa

Unreached peoples of American Samoa

An overview of the country's people groups, focusing on those who still have little or no access to the gospel in their own language and culture.

Overview

American Samoa is almost entirely Christian and ethnically and culturally quite homogeneous, with a strong predominance of the Samoan people. Even so, small groups remain with little access to a living church in their own language, and at least one language community lacks the complete Scriptures in its language. Prayer focuses on the faith, already so present in the culture, reaching every heart in a personal and deep way.
