from Church
In the western South Pacific, the kingdom of Tonga is a constitutional monarchy whose population speaks Tongan and English. The first missionaries arrived July 15, 1891 and soon visited King Jiaoji (George) Tubou and received permission to preach. they acquired property and erected a mission home and school, and also purchased a boat to travel between islands. The first convert was Alipate, baptised July 15, 1892. Much of the progress on the islands has been through Church schools. Tonga's first stake was created September 5, 1968. Pres. Gordon B. Hinckley visited Nuku'alofa October 14, 1997. |
