ʻI heʻeku fuofua hoko ko ha mēmipa ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ne u kaungā fononga ai mo Palesiteni N. ʻElitoni Tena, naʻe tokoni kia Palesiteni Tēvita O.

Ko ha kau tangata ʻeni ne ʻiloʻi ʻe Palesiteni Tena he naʻe kiʻi nofo he feituʻu ko iá. Ka naʻe ʻiloʻi mo manatuʻi ʻe Palesiteni Tena e tuʻunga ne nau ʻi aí pea ʻikai ke ne ʻiloʻi kuo liliu ʻenau moʻuí pea nau taau kakato ke hoko ko ha kaumātuʻa.

Naʻe lau ʻe he palesiteni fakasiteikí e hingoa ʻo e tangata ʻuluakí peá ne kole ange ke tuʻu ki ʻolunga. Naʻe fanafana mai ʻa Palesiteni Tena kiate au, “Sio atu ki ai.

Lolotonga e ngaahi taʻu ʻo e 1940 mo e ngaahi taʻu ʻo e 1950 tupú, naʻe ʻiloa ai ha sela ko Kilinitoni Tafi (Clinton Duffy), ko ʻene feinga ke liliu e kau tangata ʻi hono pilīsoné. Naʻe pehē ʻe ha taha fakaanga, “ʻOku totonu ke ke ʻiloʻi he ʻikai liliu ʻe he lēpatí hono kili pulepulé!”

Naʻe tali ange ʻe he sela ko Tafí, “Tonu pē ke ke ʻiloʻi ʻoku ʻikai ko haʻaku ngāue mo ha fanga lēpati. ʻOku ou ngāue mo e tangatá, pea ʻoku liliu e tangatá he ʻaho kotoa pē.”¹

ʻI he ngaahi taʻu lahi kuo hilí, ne u hoko ai ko e palesiteni ʻo e Misiona Kānatá. Naʻe ʻi ai hamau kiʻi kolo naʻe tokosiʻi pē e kau maʻu lakanga fakataulaʻeikí. Naʻe tokangaʻi maʻu pē koló ʻe ha faifekau. Ne u maʻu ha ongo mālohi naʻe fie maʻu ke hanga ʻe ha mēmipa ʻo tokangaʻi e koló.

Naʻe ʻi ai ha taha lahi ʻi he koló, ko ha tīkoni ʻi he Lakanga Taulaʻeiki Faka-ʻĒloné, ka naʻe ʻikai feʻunga ʻene maʻu lotú pe ko ʻene mālohí ke hiki hake ai hono lakanga fakataulaʻeikí. Ne ueʻi fakalaumālie au ke u ui ia ke palesiteni fakakolo. Te u manatuʻi maʻu pē ʻa e ʻaho ne ma ʻinitaviu aí. Ne u talaange kuo ueʻi au ʻe he ʻEikí ke u ui ia ke palesiteni fakakolo. Hili ʻene taʻe fie tali e fatongiá mo hono fakalotolahiʻi ia ʻe hono uaifí, naʻá ne talamai leva ʻe ngāue. Ne u fakanofo ia ko e taulaʻeiki.

Kuo pau ke tau fakatupulaki e mālohi ke tau vakai ki he tangatá ʻo ʻikai ʻi honau tuʻunga lolotongá, ka ʻi he tuʻunga ʻe lava ke nau aʻusia heʻenau maʻu ha fakamoʻoni ki he ongoongolelei ʻo Kalaisí.

Ne u ʻalu ki ha fakataha ʻi Letivila ʻi Kololató. ʻOku tuʻu ʻa Letivila ʻi ha feituʻu māʻolunga feʻunga mo ha fute ʻe 10,000 tupu (3,000 m) hono māʻolungá. ʻOku ou manatuʻi e fakataha ko iá koeʻuhí ko e māʻolunga e feituʻú, ka ʻoku ou manatuʻi foki e meʻa ne hoko aí. Naʻe tokosiʻi pē kau maʻu lakanga fakataulaʻeiki aí. Hangē ko e kiʻi kolo ʻi he Misiona Kānatá, naʻe tokangaʻi e kolo ko iá ʻe ha faifekau pea naʻe pehē maʻu pē.

Ne mau fai ha fakataha lelei ka ʻi heʻemau hivaʻi e himi tukú, naʻe ueʻi au ke ui ha taha he feituʻú ke palesiteni fakakolo. Ne u tafoki hake ki he palesiteni fakamisioná ʻo fehuʻi ange, “ʻOku ʻikai koā ha tangata he feituʻú ni te ne lava ʻo tokangaʻi?”

Naʻá ne tali mai, “ʻIkai ke u ʻilo ʻe au ha taha.”

Lolotonga e hivá, ne u siofi fakalelei e kau tangata ne tangutu he ʻotu sea ʻe tolu ki muʻá. Hangē ne tohoakiʻi ʻeku tokangá ki ha taha ʻo e kau tangatá. Ne u pehē ange ki he palesiteni fakamisioná, “Te ne lava ʻo hoko nai ko e palesiteni fakakolo?”

Naʻá ne tali mai, “Heiʻilo. Mahalo pē te ne lava.”

Ne u pehē ange, “Palesiteni, te ma ō ki he loki hokó ʻo ʻinitaviu ia. Tuʻu koe ʻo lea hili e himi tukú kae ʻoua ke ma foki mai.”

Ne fakaʻosi ʻe he palesiteni fakamisioná ʻene fakamoʻoní ʻi heʻema foki atu ki he lokí. Ne u fokotuʻu e hingoa ʻo e tangatá ke hoko ko e palesiteni fakakolo foʻoú. Talu mei he ʻaho ko iá, mo hono tokangaʻi maʻu pē ʻa e ʻiuniti ʻi Letivila ʻi Kololató, ʻe ha mēmipa honau feituʻú.

Ngaahi tokoua, ʻe lava ke fakaʻaongaʻi e tefitoʻi moʻoni tatau kiate kinautolu ʻoku teʻeki ai kau ki he Siasí. ʻOku totonu ke tau fakatupulaki ʻetau malava ʻo vakai ki he tangatá, ʻo ʻikai ʻi honau tuʻunga lolotongá, ka ko e tuʻunga te nau aʻu ki ai ʻo kapau te nau kau ki he Siasí, ʻi heʻenau maʻu ha fakamoʻoni ki he ongoongoleleí pea mo e taimi ʻoku nau moʻui ai ʻo fenāpasi mo hono ngaahi akonakí.

ʻI he 1961, naʻe fakahoko ha konifelenisi fakaemāmani lahi maʻá e kau palesiteni fakamisioná, pea naʻe ʻoatu e palesiteni fakamisiona kotoa pē he Siasí ki Sōleki Siti ki he fakatahá. Ne u haʻu ki Sōleki Siti mei hoku misiona ʻi Tolonitoó ʻi Kānata.

ʻI ha efiafi ʻe taha, ʻi he kei Tokoni ʻa N. ʻElitoni Tena he taimi ko iá ki he Kōlomu ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, pea ko ʻene toki foki mai ia mei heʻene tokangaʻi e ngaahi misiona ʻi Pilitānia Lahi mo ʻIulope Hihifó. Naʻá ne fakamatala ʻo kau ki ha faifekau naʻe hoko ko e faifekau lavameʻa taha kuó na fetaulaki he ngaahi ʻinitaviu kotoa kuó ne fakahokó. Naʻá ne pehē ʻi heʻene ʻinitaviu e faifekaú, naʻá ne pehē ange, “Mahalo ko e kakai kotoa kuó ke papi mai ki he Siasí, naʻe maʻu honau hingoá mei he kāingalotú ē.”

Naʻe tali ange ʻe he talavoú, “ʻIkai, ne ma maʻu kinautolu heʻema ʻalu ʻo uiuí.”

Naʻe fehuʻi ange ʻe Misa Tena pe ko e hā ne kehe ai ʻene fai e foungá ni—ko e hā ne lavameʻa ai pē ia kae ʻikai pehē e niʻihi kehé. Naʻe pehē ʻe he talavoú naʻá ne feinga ke papitaiso e taha kotoa pē naʻá na fetaulakí. Naʻá ne pehē kapau ʻe tukituki atu ha matapā ʻo ne sio ki ha tangata vala motuʻa ne ifi tapaka pea ʻikai mataʻi tokanga ki ha meʻa—tautautefito ki he meʻa fakalotú—ʻe fakakaukauloto leva e faifekaú ki he fōtunga ʻe aʻu ki ai e tangatá kapau ne kehe hono tūkungá.

Naʻá ne pehē, “ʻI heʻeku vakai pehē ki ha tahá, ʻoku ou maʻu ai ha mālohi ke fai ʻeku fakamoʻoní ʻi ha founga ʻe ongo ki hono lotó.”

ʻOku ʻi ai hotau fatongia ke tau vakai ki hotau kaungāmeʻá, kaungāngāué mo hotau kaungāʻapí ʻi he foungá ni. ʻOku ʻi ai hotau fatongia ke ʻoua naʻa tau vakai ki he kakaí ʻi he tuʻunga ʻoku nau ʻi aí, ka ʻi he tuʻunga te nau ala aʻusiá. ʻOku ou kōlenga atu ke mou fakakaukau kiate kinautolu he foungá ni.

Ka ʻe lava ke tau tui ki he lea ʻa Paula kia Tīmoté:

“Ko ia ke ʻoua naʻá ke mā koe ke fakamoʻoni ʻa hotau ʻEikí.”³

ʻI Mē ʻo e 1974, ne u ʻaʻahi ai mo Misa Sione H. Kolipoki ki he ʻotu Tongá. Ne ʻai ha taimi ke ma ʻaʻahi ai ki he tuʻi ʻo Tongá, pea ne mau fakataha.

Naʻá ne pehē ange, “ʻE hoʻo ʻAfio, ʻoku totonu ke ke kau mo ho kakaí ki he Māmongá, pea ʻe solova ai ha konga lahi hoʻomou palopalemá.”

Naʻe malimali pē tuʻí mo ne folofola ange, “Sione Kolipoki, mahalo ʻokú ke moʻoni.”

Ne u fakakaukau ai ki he ʻAposetolo ko Paulá, ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻAkilipá. Ne u fakakaukau ki he tali ʻa ʻAkilipa ki he fakamoʻoni ʻa Paulá: “Kuó ke mei [fakalotoʻi] au ke u hoko ko e Kalisitiane.”⁴ Naʻe maʻu ʻe Kolipoki ha loto-toʻa ke fai ʻene fakamoʻoní ki ha tuʻi.

ʻOku lauafe hatau kāingalotu he pooni ʻoku nau ngāue fakafaifekau taimi kakato maʻá e ʻEikí. Ne nau tali ha ui pea tuku ai honau ʻapí, fāmilí, kaungāmeʻá mo e akó ka nau ō atu ʻo ngāue.

ʻE lava ke tali ki ai ʻetau kau faifekaú, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻa Paulá, ko ha faifekau fungani ʻo ha kuonga ʻi muʻa: “He neongo ʻoku ou malanga ʻaki ʻa e ongoongoleleí, ʻoku ʻikai ko ia ʻoku ou vikiviki aí: he kuo tuku ia kiate au; ʻio, ʻe malaʻia au ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te u malanga ʻaki ʻa e ongoongoleleí!”⁵

ʻOku ʻikai ha fakamatala ʻe fie maʻua ange, ha fatongia ʻe haʻisia ange, pe fakahinohino ʻe fakahangatonu ange he folofola māʻoniʻoní, ka ko ia ne fai ʻe he ʻEiki toetuʻú, ʻi Heʻene hā ʻi Kāleli ki he kau ākonga ʻe toko hongofulu mā tahá. Naʻá Ne folofola:
