Ebusua ebusua beenu no nyaa enyibye dɛ wɔrobɔmu etu kwan wɔ wimuhɛn kor noara mu akɔ Buenos Aires, Argentina. Hɔn nkɔmbɔdzi rokɔdo no, me maame hun dɛ kesi dɛm mber no nna wɔnntse Jesus Christ N’Asɔr a wɔdze asan ananmu no ho asɛm biara da.
Nsɛmbisa kor a odzi kan a Susana bisae nye dɛ, “Ana ebɛkã museum fɛfɛɛfɛw no a sika kɔkɔɔ ohonyi si no sor ho asɛm akyerɛ me a?’’

Ebusua ebusua no gyee obiara ne foon nkanee na wɔsee hɔnho nanatsew yie wɔ Buenos Aires wimuhɛn gyinabea hɔ.

Ntsɛmpanara a Susana koduur no kurow mu no, ɔnye ne babasia Giada, kɔr ɔno Susana ne maame, a ɔtse bɛn hɔn fie hɔ nye no kɛkyɛɛ sũahu yi.

Wɔsee dɛ, “Nyew.’’
Obisaa dɛ “Asɛmpasomafo?’’.
Hɔn beenu buaa dɛ, “Nyew yefi hɔ!’’
Afei ɔsee dɛ, “hom mfow me hɛn no; hom reba fie abɛkyerɛkyerɛ me.’’
Abosoom ebien ekyir no, wonumaa Maria Susana. Wonumaa ne babasia, mber a odzii mfe akron. Yɛda ho reyɛ Eduardo, a biribiara mmfa ho no yɛdɔ no noho edwuma.
Ofitsi dɛm mber no, Susana abɛyɛ asɛmpasomafo akɛse no mu kor a mehyia da. Ɔtse dɛ Mosiah ne mbambanyin no, a wɔdze akra pii baa Christ hɔ no.
Hɛn nkɔmbɔdzi kor mu no, mibisaa no dɛ, “Wo esumasɛm nye ebɛnadze? Isi dɛn nye binom kyɛ asɛmpa no?’’
Ɔkãa kyerɛ me dɛ, “Ɔnnyɛ dzen koraa. Dabiara ansaana mibefi me fie no, mobɔ mpaa, serɛ Ɔsor Egya dɛ Ɔnkyerɛ me obi a ohia asɛmpa no wɔ hɔn abrabɔ mu.

Susana so see dɛ, “ Mber bi so meyerɛw m’ano ara ber morotweɔn keteke. Da kor bi banyin bi hwɛɛ me na obisaa me dɛ, ‘Ebɛnadze na ereyerɛw w’ano wɔ ho?’ Ɔyɛɛ me ahobow.
“Mobuaa dɛ, mereyerɛw m’ano osiandɛ m’enyi agye!’
“Na afei ɔkãa dɛ, ‘Na ebɛnadze na w’enyi agye ho dodow yi?’
“Miyii ano dɛ, ‘Meyɛ Jesus Christ N’Asɔr a ɔwɔ hɔ ma Nda a odzi Ekyir Ahotseweefo mu ba, na ɔno na ɔma m’enyi gye. Ana atse ho asɛm a?’”
Ber a ɔkãa dɛ oho no, ɔmaa no krataasin no bi na motoo nsa frɛ no dɛ Kwesida a ɔreba no ɔmbra som. Kwesida a odzi do no, okyiaa no abow n’ano.
President Dallin H. Oaks kyerɛkyerɛɛ dɛ:
“Ndzɛmba ebiasa wɔ hɔ a asɔrmba nyinar botum ayɛ dze aboa akyɛ asɛmpa no. …
Odzi Kan hɛn nyina botum abɔ mpaa dze enya pɛ dze aboa nkwagye ho edwuma n’afã a ohia yi. …

M’anyɛkofo adɔfo, Ewuradze hia hɛn ma yɛaboa Israel ano. Nkyerɛkyerɛ na Ahyɛmudzi mu no, Ɔkã dɛ, “Eso mma hom nndzi kan nndwendwen dza hom bɛkã; na mbom hom nkora nkwa nsɛm wɔ hom adwen aber nyina, na dɔn no nya sõ a wɔdze obiara nedze bɛma no,’’
Dza ɔka ho no, Ɔabɔ hɛn anohoba dɛ:
