Sister Reyna I.

Ka neongo ia, kapau ʻoku tau loto-mamahi maʻu pē, mahalo ʻoku fie maʻu ke tau kolea ha tokoni. Ko ia ʻoku ou fokotuʻu atu ke muimui ki he tā sīpinga ʻa e Fakamoʻuí. ʻOkú ke ʻiloʻi, naʻá Ne ʻeke ha ngaahi fehuʻi ne fakaʻatā ai ki he kakaí ke nau fakahaaʻi ʻenau ngaahi ongó. Naʻá Ne fakaʻatā e kakaí ke fakahaaʻi ʻenau mamahí—hangē ko ʻení, ko e taimi naʻá Ne fehuʻia ai ʻa Maʻata mo Mele kau ki he pekia ʻa Lasalosí. ʻI he hala ki ʻEmeasí, naʻá Ne toe folofola ki Heʻene kau ākongá, peá Ne ʻeke ange ha ngaahi fehuʻi ke fakaʻatā ke nau fakahaaʻi ʻenau ngaahi loto-hohaʻá mo ʻenau mamahí koeʻuhí he kuo mole meiate kinautolu honau Fakamoʻuí.

Ko ia ai ʻoku ou ongoʻi kapau te tau fakatupu ha ʻātakai ʻe ongoʻi ai ʻe he kau akó ʻoku nau malu ke fakahaaʻi ʻenau ngaahi ongó— ʻo ʻikai ngata pē ʻi he loki akó, mo kinautolu pē—ka ke nau ongoʻi malu ke fakahaaʻi ʻenau ngaahi ongó mahalo pē ʻi he faitohi, mahalo pē ki ha mēmipa ʻi he fāmilí, mahalo ki ha kaungāmeʻa, kae tautautefito ki he Tamai Hēvaní.

Ko e hā ha founga ʻe lava ke tau fetokoniʻaki ai?

Kuó u fakatokangaʻi ko e taimi ʻoku tau kole ai ki he kakaí ke ʻomi ha ngaahi fakakaukau pe fakahā pe ueʻi fakalaumālie ki he founga ke tokoni ki he niʻihi kehé, ʻoku nau maʻu ʻa e ueʻi fakalaumālie ko iá ʻo kapau te nau lotua ia, pea ʻe lava ke nau ʻalu ʻo tokoni.

Brother Bert Whimpey: ʻOku ou houngaʻia ʻia ʻEletā Hōlani—kapau ʻokú ke manatuʻi ʻa ʻene lea ʻi he konifelenisi ʻi ʻOkatopa 2013. Naʻá ne talanoa ai kau ki heʻene fefaʻuhi he taimi ʻe taha mo e loto-taʻotaʻomiá.

Pea naʻe hounga moʻoni kiate au e ngaahi meʻa ʻe tolu naʻá ne vahevahé: “ʻOua naʻa teitei mole hoʻo tui ki hoʻo Tamai ʻi Hēvaní. … Fekumi ki he faleʻi ʻa kinautolu ʻoku nau maʻu e ngaahi kī ki hoʻo lelei fakalaumālié,” pea kapau ʻe fiemaʻu pea, “kumi faleʻi mei ha kakai falalaʻanga kuo fakamoʻoniʻi ʻenau akó, kau taukei mataotao pea nau mahuʻingaʻia he meʻa ʻoku leleí.”2

Pea ko ia ʻoku ou tui ʻoku ʻikai ngata pē ʻi heʻetau kau akó ka ki heʻetau kau faiakó foki, ke nau ʻiloʻi ʻoku sai pē ke fakahaaʻi e ngaahi meʻa ko iá mo talanoaʻi ia ke maʻu ʻa e tokoni ʻoku nau fiemaʻú.

Brother Jason Willard:Mālō ʻaupito Brother Whimpey. Ko e fehuʻi hoko ko ʻení ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo ʻetau toʻu tupú mo e kakai lalahi kei talavoú pea mo e founga ʻe lava ke tau tokoniʻi ai kinautolu ke nau sio ʻo ʻiloʻi e ʻuhinga ʻoku felāveʻi ai ʻa e Siasí mo ʻenau moʻuí, ʻuhinga ʻoku nau fiemaʻu ai ʻa e Siasí, pea mo e ʻuhinga ʻoku fiemaʻu ai ʻe he Siasí kinautolú.

Sister Michelle Craig:Pea ʻoku ou tui moʻoni ʻoku totonu ke ongoʻi ʻe heʻetau toʻu tupú mo ʻetau kau taautaha kei talavoú ko e mēmipasipi ʻi he Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo e Kau Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní ʻoku ope atu ia ʻi ha lisi ʻo e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni pe ko ha meʻa ke fakakakato. ʻOku mahulu hake ia ʻi ha kulupu fakasōsiale.

Pea ʻi hono ako mo moʻui ʻaki e ongoongoleleí, te nau ʻiloʻi mo ongoʻi moʻoni ko hai kinautolu mo ʻenau taumuʻá.

Ko hotau toʻu tupu he ʻaho ní ʻoku nau fakahoko e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni hangē ko e ʻofa ki he niʻihi kehé, tokoni kiate kinautolu ʻoku taʻetokangaʻi ʻe he sosaietí. ʻOku nau fie maʻu ha taumuʻa, pea ʻoku nau fie fai ha lelei ʻi he māmaní.

ʻOku ou ʻiloʻi ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku makatuʻunga pē ia ʻia Sīsū Kalaisi. Pea ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku tau fai ko e kau faiako pea mo ʻetau hoko ko e niʻihi ʻoku ʻofa mo fakafeangai mo e toʻu tupú mo e kau taautaha kei talavoú pea mo e fānaú, ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku tau fai mo akoʻí ʻoku totonu ke fakamālohia ai ʻa e fakamoʻoni ki he moʻui, ko e misiona, pea mo e Fakalelei ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí.
