Samoa (WSM)

Samoa, in the South Pacific, is known for its lush landscapes, fa’a Samoa (the Samoan way), and vibrant music and dance. Samoans value extended family, respect for elders, and communal living. Christianity, especially Congregationalist and Methodist denominations, is central to spiritual life, with churches at the center of every village. Sunday worship, choir singing, and white Sunday celebrations are important traditions.
