South Pacific History Polynesia Aotearoa (regions a, b, c, d and e) Auckland Waikato Waiapu Wellington Nelson Christchurch Dunedin Beginnings The Anglican Church in New Zealand had its beginnings in 1814 when the Maori chief Ruatara agreed with the Reverend Samuel Marsden to give protection to three missionaries and their families at Oihi in the Bay of Islands. Missionary activity, including Christian teaching in the Maori language, after initial difficulties, quickly spread throughout the country. The work was guided by the Church Missionary Society under the able local leadership of the Rev. Henry Williams from 1823. The work of the CMS faded significantly during the wars of the 1860s. The missionaries were assisted in many cases by their wives, who toiled and laboured alongside them. The Maori people themselves were vigorous evangelists among their own people, and some of them died for the cause of Christianity. Bishop Selwyn With the advent of organised European settlement after 1840, mainly from England and Scotland, a new focus of the church emerged; the formation of the church in the new colonial settlements. This was given firm direction by George Augustus Selwyn, Bishop of New Zealand, who arrived in 1842 as a bishop of the United Church of England and Ireland. The settlers were intent on establishing their familiar church in a new land, but without the English connection with the state. A focus was always the

Where is Samoa? Located in the South Pacific and midway between Hawaii and New Zealand, Samoa consists of two entities; Western Samoa - an independent nation since 1961, and American Samoa - a U.S. Territory since 1900. Samoa is generally referred to as the " Cradle of Polynesia " South Pacific Most Archaeologists believe the first Polynesians settled in what is now American Samoa around 600 B.C. By that time, Polynesians had established themselves on the eastern tip of Tutuila island in the village of Tula. These first inhabitants probably arrived in Tonga and the Samoas from the west, perhaps by way of Indonesia, Vanuatu and Fiji. Samoa's long isolation from the western world ended in 1722 when the Dutch explorer, Jacob Roggeveen, came upon the islands. It wasn't until 1831 however that European influence had any real impact. In that year, John Williams of the London Missionary Society arrived with eight Tahitian missionaries. Samoans took to Christianity with enthusiasm and remain a deeply religious people to this day.
