"In what follows we examine the background and status of the LDS Church in the islands of the Pacific, consisting of the cultural regions of Polynesia, Melanesia, and Micronesia while considering the challenges and prospects for the religion of the Latter-day Saints in these regions in the twenty-first century. In particular we will provide an overview of early LDS missionary efforts in Polynesia and proceed to consider church education and translation needs, the role of LDS temples, native Polynesian missionaries, church humanitarian efforts, cultural issues, the current challenges of the Polynesian diaspora, and member retention and reactivation concerns."
