There were three boats in the yard of this Pago Pago LDS church. A few weeks ago we went to a baptism and fireside here.
Notice the car forced into the second story window.
This boat was NOT supposed to be dry docked. The waves carried it to shore.
In the village of Amanave, a group of saints held Sunday School in this room, while waiting for the church to allow them to become a branch.
The missionaries lived upstairs and the Sunday School was held downstairs. Their home is still standing because the one in front, which protected it, was wiped out.
This was the ward mission leaders home.
Even though this home is still standing, the sea destroyed the possessions inside.
WOW! Crazy pictures. I bet you have been busy cleaning up. How could you clean all that up? Thanks for sharing all the stories. It makes me teary eyed reading it and thinking how blessed we all are as we do what the Lord wants. Love you
We are so grateful you are safe and were protected from the terribly destructive sea. We are grateful that the missionaries were safe. What an incredible experience to live through! We love you, Dave and Robyn
We are home, we are home. It is hard to imagine. We completed an 18 month Samoa Apia Mission. We began a life changing experience July 2009 until December 2010. We are forever grateful to our Heavenly Father for allowing us this experience. We taught Institute at the American Samoa Community College, and helped our mission president with the 28-34 missionaries that were on Tutuila and Manu'a. We remember with great love and fondness the people we met.
