Ko Kataliná ko ha kiʻi taʻahine kei siʻi. Naʻá ne ʻofa ʻi hono fāmilí pea naʻá ne ʻiloʻi naʻa nau ʻofa ʻiate ia. ʻI he taimi ʻe niʻihi naʻe hanga ʻe Paula ʻa ia ko hono tuongaʻane lahí ʻo fakahā ange ki ai ha fanga kiʻi talanoa mei he Tohi Tapú mo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná.

Naʻe hanga ʻe he lotu ko ʻení ʻo tokoniʻi ʻa Katalina ke ne ongoʻi fiefia ʻi hono lotó. Naʻá ne ʻiloʻi ʻe tokoni ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní kia Paula ʻi heʻene ngāue fakafaifekaú. Naʻe lotu ʻa Katalina mo hono fāmilí maʻa Paula ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻi he lolotonga ʻo ʻene ʻi he malaʻe ʻo e ngāue fakafaifekaú.

Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻe lava ʻo lotu fakataha ʻa e ngaahi fāmilí maʻa ha taha ʻoku puke, ke maʻu ha tokoni ʻi he palōpalema fakafāmilí, pe maʻa ha faifekau ʻokú ne fiemaʻu ha tokoni ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní, pe ki ha ngaahi toe ʻuhinga kehe ange. Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻe lava ke tau lotu fekauʻaki mo ha ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga kehe kiate kitautolu. Fakaʻaongaʻi ʻa e ʻAlamā 14:27 ke tokoni ki he fānaú ʻi he taimi ke tau lotu aí.
