The Saints Herald is an offical publication of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Vols. 21 to 28, No. 20, were published at Plano, Illinois, USA. From then on, Lamoni, Iowa, was the place of publication. Until the end of 1882 (Vol. 29), the journal was published fortnightly. It then became a weekly publication. The volumes of The Saints Herald prior to Vol. 21 contain no material relating to New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.

The articles mainly concern the work of missionaries of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in New Zealand, Hawaii, Tahiti and the Tuamotu Archipelago. For other publications by the Reorganized Church see also PMB 94 and 109 for Autumn Leaves, PMB 104 for Zion's Ensign, PMB 105 for Journal of History, and PMB 106 for Times and Seasons.
