The Redemptive Force has been commissioned by God to speak, to show and influence the fa’afafine community with the genuine Love of God.
Redemptive Force’s initiative is to create a safe environment where we believe for God to personally encounter and transform each individual according to His Will, and not us.
Redemptive Force’s mandate is found in Romans 8:21; which is to bring these souls back, from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.




The Redemptive Force is led by brother Joshua Pe’a Papali’i. After encountering Jesus, he made the bold decision to begin a life-changing journey, de-transitioning out of an alternative lifestyle (as a fa’afafine), and began to pursue God’s design and vision for his life.
He is passionate about equipping those from similar backgrounds, with God’s truth of what His Word says of their true identity and purpose in Christ. He also believes that sharing his powerful, testimony will bring many close to Jesus and shine the light of God’s hope to the next generation.
