Samoa Independence Day is celebrated on the 1st of June each year to commemorate the country's independence. Prior to independence, Samoa was under German rule from 1900 to 1914 and then administered by New Zealand from 1914 to 1962. The struggle for independence gained momentum during the mid-20th century. Samoa Independence Day is a momentous occasion for Samoans to celebrate their nation's freedom and cultural identity. It serves as a reminder of the country's history, progress, and the collective spirit of its people.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus is a devotion within the Catholic Church that focuses on the heart of Jesus Christ as a symbol of His divine love for humanity. It is a prominent and beloved devotion that emphasizes the compassionate and merciful nature of Jesus. The devotion to the Sacred Heart traces its roots back to the early Church, but it gained significant popularity in the 17th century through the visions of Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, a French nun. According to her accounts, Jesus appeared to her and revealed His Sacred Heart, calling for devotion and reparation.

The Presentation Sisters founded by Venerable Nano Nagle have a deep devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
