ZA zaka khumi ndi zitatu zapitazo, ine ndi mkazi wanga, onse achikatolika-achikatolika, tidayitanidwa ku tchalitchi cha Baptist ndi mzathu yemwe kale anali Mkatolika.
Tinkapita mu utumiki wa Lamlungu m'mawa. Titafika, nthawi yomweyo tinakhudzidwa ndi onse maanja achichepere. Zinatidziwira mwadzidzidzi momwe ochepa achinyamata kumeneko anali atabwerera ku parishi yathu yomwe ya Katolika.
Tinalowa m'malo opatulika amakono ndikukhala pampando. Gulu lina linayamba kutsogolera mpingo polambira. Oimba ndi oyimba anali pafupi msinkhu wathu — ndipo anali opukutidwa kwambiri. Nyimboyi idadzozedwa ndipo kupembedza kumalimbikitsa. Posakhalitsa, m'busayo adapereka uthenga wake mwachidwi, momveka bwino, ndi mwamphamvu.
Pambuyo pa mwambowu, ine ndi mkazi wanga tinadziwitsidwa kwa mabanja ambiri omwe analipo. Maonekedwe akumwetulira, ofunda adatiitanira kubwerera, osati ku msonkhano kokha, koma kuusiku wa banjali komanso pamwambo wina wamatamando ndi kupembedza sabata iliyonse. Tinkamva kuti amatikonda, kulandiridwa, ndi kudalitsidwa.
Titalowa m'galimoto kuti tizinyamuka, zomwe ndimangoganiza kuti inali parishi yangayanga… nyimbo zofooketsa, mabanja osafooka, komanso kutengapo gawo pang'ono ndi mpingo. Mabanja achichepere amsinkhu wathu? Kutha kwathunthu mu mipando. Chopweteka kwambiri chinali kusungulumwa. Nthawi zambiri ndinkachoka ku Mass ndikumazizira kuposa momwe ndimalowera.
Tikuyenda, ndidati kwa mkazi wanga, "Tiyenera kubwerera kuno. Titha kulandira Ukalisitiya pa Misa tsiku lililonse Lolemba. ” Ndinkangoseka theka. Tinapita kunyumba titasokonezeka, tili achisoni, ngakhalenso kukwiya.

Usiku womwewo ndikutsuka mano m'bafa, osadzuka ndikuyandama pazochitika zamasana, mwadzidzidzi ndidamva mawu osiyana mumtima mwanga:
Khalani, muchepetse abale anu…
Ndinaima, kuyang'anitsitsa, ndikumvetsera. Liwu labwerezedwa:

Ndinadabwa. Ndikuyenda kutsika ndikudabwa, ndidapeza mkazi wanga. "Wokondedwa, ndikuganiza kuti Mulungu akufuna kuti tikhalebe mu Tchalitchi cha Katolika." Ndidamuuza zomwe zidachitika, ndipo monga mgwirizano wangwiro pamanyimbo omwe anali mumtima mwanga, adavomera.
KUGalamuka
Koma Mulungu amayenerabe kuchita nane. Ndinakhumudwa ndi malaise mu Mpingo. Popeza ndinakulira m'banja momwe “kufalitsa uthenga wabwino” linali liwu lomwe tinali kuligwiritsa ntchito, ndinali ndi chidziwitso chokwanira chazikhulupiriro zomwe zikuwotchera pansi pa Mpingo ku Canada. Kuphatikiza apo, ndinali kuyamba kukayikira chikhulupiriro changa chachikatolika… Mary, purigatorio, unsembe wosakwatira…. mukudziwa, mwachizolowezi.
Patatha milungu ingapo, tinapita kumalo makolo anga atatsala maola ochepa. Amayi adati ali ndi vidiyo iyi yomwe ndimangofunika kuonera. Ndinagwera mchipinda chochezera ndekha, ndipo ndinayamba kumvera m'busa wakale wa Presbateria akundiuza nkhani za momwe iye anali wanzeru kwambiri wotsutsa-Chikatolika yemwe iye akanakhoza kumuganizira. Adakhumudwa kwambiri ndi zomwe Akatolika amadzinenera, kotero adaganiza zakuwatsimikizira kuti ndi zabodza. Popeza Mpingo wa Katolika unali chikhulupiriro chokha chachikhristu chomwe chimaphunzitsa izi kulera sali mu chikonzero cha Mulungu ndipo chifukwa chake akuchita chiwerewere, angawatsimikizire kuti ali olakwika.
Kudzera pakuphunzira mwakhama Abambo a Tchalitchi, mfundo zaumulungu, ndi chiphunzitso cha Mpingo, Dr. Scott Hahn anapeza kuti Tchalitchi cha Katolika chinali Chabwino. Izi sizinamusinthe, komabe. Zinamupsetsa mtima.
Pomwe Dr. Hahn amayesa kusokoneza chimodzi mwa ziphunzitso za Tchalitchi, adapeza chodabwitsachi: ziphunzitso zonsezi sizinangowonedwa mzaka mazana ambiri mosadukiza Chikhalidwe cha kwa Khristu ndi Atumwi, koma pamenepo chinali maziko odabwitsa a m'Baibulo kwa iwo.
lake umboni anapitiriza. Sanathenso kukana chowonadi pamaso pake: Tchalitchi cha Katolika chinali mpingo womwe Khristu adakhazikitsa pa Peter, thanthwe. Potsutsana ndi chifuniro cha mkazi wake, a Dr. Hahn pamapeto pake adakhala Akatolika, pambuyo pake ndi akazi awo, Kimberly… pamenepo zikwi makumi a akhristu ochokera kuzipembedzo zingapo, kuphatikizapo kugumuka kwa abusa Achiprotestanti. Umboni wake wokha ungakhale womwe unayambitsa kutuluka kwakukulu mu Tchalitchi kuyambira zaka za m'ma 1500 pomwe mzimayi wathu wa Guadalupe adawonekera ku Mexico aku 9 miliyoni. (A buku laulere zaumboni wa Dr. Hahn aperekedwa Pano.)
Kanema watha. Kukhazikika pang'onopang'ono pazenera. Misozi, ikutsika m'masaya mwanga. "Iyi ndi nyumba yanga,”Ndinaziyankhulira. Zinali ngati kuti Mzimu wandidzutsa mwa ine chikumbukiro ya zaka zikwi ziwiri.
KUPEZA CHOONADI
China chake mkati mwanga chimandilimbikitsa kuti ndikumbe mozama. Kwa zaka ziwiri zotsatira, ndidatsanulira pa Malemba, zolembedwa ndi Abambo a Tchalitchi, ndi zida zazikulu zomwe zimatuluka mgulu latsopano la "opepesa". Ndinafuna kudziwonera ndekha, kuŵerenga, ndi kudziŵa ndekha chimene chinali chowonadi.
Ndikukumbukira tsiku lina nditatsamira pa Baibulo, mutu waukulu unaduka pamene ndimayesetsa kumvetsetsa udindo wa Maria mu Tchalitchi. "Ndi chiyani chokhudza Mariya, Ambuye? Kodi n'chifukwa chiyani ali wotchuka? ”
Nthawi yomweyo, msuwani wanga adalira belu la pakhomo. Paul, yemwe ndi wocheperako ine, adandifunsa kuti zikuyenda bwanji. Pamene ndimamufotokozera mavuto anga amkati, adakhala pakama modekha nati, “Kodi sizodabwitsa kuti sitiyenera kudziwa zonse - kuti tingathe kudalira Yesu kuti akutsogolera Atumwi ndi oloŵa mmalo awo kuchowonadi chonse, monga ananenera. " (John 16: 13)
Inali mphindi yamphamvu, kuwunikira. Ndinazindikira pomwepo kuti ngakhale sindimamvetsa zonse, Ndinali otetezeka m'manja a Amayi Mpingo. Ndidazindikira kuti ngati chowonadi chikasiyidwa kuti aliyense azilingalire yekha, kutengera "malingaliro" ake, "kuzindikira", kapena zomwe amamva "Mulungu akunena" kwa iye, tikadakhala ndi chisokonezo. Tidagawana magawano. Ife tikanakhala nazo zipembedzo zikwi zambiri ndi zikwi za “apapa”, onse a iwo akudzinenera kuti ndi osalephera, Kutsimikizira ife kuti iwo khalani ndi ngodya pa chowonadi. Tikhala ndi zomwe tili nazo lero.
Pasanapite nthawi, Ambuye adalankhula mawu ena mumtima mwanga, omveka bwino, komanso mwamphamvu:
Nyimbo ndi khomo lolalikirira…
Ndinakonza gitala yanga, kuimba foni, ndipo zinayamba.
