Message from the President

Ron Smith Laupola
President
1992- Current
Singing 2nd Tenor since 1976

Thank you for your interest in the Samoan Gospel Heralds, but moreso for your dedication to God's Minsitry. I've been privileged to serve in this capacity and work alongside people who genuinely love God and love each other. By visiting our website, it expresses that Ministry through music is still effective in today's society. 

The Samoan Gospel Heralds have diligently worked to take God's message through music as far as  possible. Since it's existence in 1972, I follow in great footsteps of those who led before me like the late Mr. Asipeli Po'uliva'ati, Mrs. Betty Lawson and the late Pastor Alele Moaga. 

I ask for your continued prayers that the Samoan Gospel Heralds continue to put God's ministry first and that this music will touch someone's heart and bring them closer to our loving God and Savior. 

In His Service,

Ron Smith Laupola
