The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is supporting the Tonga Government by collaborating with the Ministry of Health to allow use of some of its meetinghouses to facilitate vaccine shots throughout Tonga.
Over the past few days many people have visited vaccination sites for their first dose of the vaccine.

The former president of the Free Wesleyan Church, Reverend Alifeleti Malakai Mone, came to a meetinghouse of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for his vaccination.
“I feel safe and protected, for I have taken the vaccine,” he said.
The president of the Nuku’alofa North Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Takaetali Tupou, together with other members of the stake (group of congregations) eagerly took part in this important initiative.
They were among the first in their community to present themselves to be vaccinated.
“I urge the members of our stake and all others to get the vaccination for the protection and safety of their families and friends,” President Tupou said.
