ʻOku fakamatalaʻi lelei ʻi he folofolá ʻa e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo ne hoko ʻi hono ʻaloʻi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí (hangē ko ʻení, vakai ki he Luke 2:1–19). ʻOku fakamatala ʻa e folofolá fekauʻaki mo e taimi naʻá Ne kei siʻi aí, naʻe “tupu ʻa e tamasiʻí, pea mālohi ʻi he laumālié, pea fonu ia ʻi he poto: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻa e ʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá” pea naʻe “tupulaki ʻa e potó ʻia Sīsū mo e lahi, pea naʻe ʻofeina ia ʻe he ʻOtuá mo e tangatá” (Luke 2:40, 52).

ʻI he taʻu 12 ʻa Sīsuú, naʻa Ne fononga mo Hono fāmilí ki Selusalema ke fakamanatua ʻa e Kātoanga ʻo e Laka Atú. ʻI heʻenau foki ki Nāsaletí, naʻe fakatokangaʻi ʻe Mele mo Siosefa naʻe ʻikai ke kau ʻa Sīsū ʻi he kau mēmipa ʻo e fāmilí naʻe fononga mo kinauá.

Naʻa mo ʻEne kei tamasiʻi siʻí, naʻe tokanga taha pē ʻa Sīsū ki hono fakahoko e ngāue ʻa ʻEne Tamaí.

Naʻá Ne folofola, “Naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu hifo mei he langí ke fai hoku loto ʻoʻokú, ka ko e finangalo ʻo ia naʻá ne fekauʻi aú” (Sione 6:38). ʻOku finangalo ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi ke tau fai ʻa e meʻa tatau. Naʻá Ne talaʻofa “ko ia ʻokú ne fai ʻa e finangalo ʻo ʻeku Tamai ʻoku ʻi he langí” ko e tokotaha ia ʻe hū ki he puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá (Mātiu 7:21).
