Mu muvu wa 1970, napata mudimu kwiyand kwa Alaska ni nikala ni nfalang jivud. Kupwa nakandama aviyon naya ku Londres, nalanda tukutuku, ni nasambisha kuya ku mutambu wa kurul pakad kwijik kwisu kumwing niyila. Kupwa kwa angond avud, nashika mu Afrik.

Namwita kusambish kwilej nend Bibil, ni witiya.

Nipana nakash mu kwilej, natangang nakash mabuku ni magazet ma Atuman a Yehova. Bibil niyend namutangang. Yansangaresha nakash! Ku yikumangan, namana anch ap anakemp ading ij yakul ya yipul yakimbangau antu ilejina mu yitot ya mivu, yipul mud: ‘Mulong wak kud uyimp mwamu? Nzamb ud nany?

Kushik mu 1974, nikala chibol wa pakampwil ni nabombakana ni Nigel Pitt, wikala murunam wa rawonsu.

Pa chisu chinicha kwiyand kwa Irland kwading kupwitamijan nakash. Antu amwing atazukang mutambu wa kwiyand kwa Irland anch “ngand ya mabomb ni yidiang.” Antu atendang mu jinjil, alozang antu, ni motak yasuta mu kubul yidiang. Yisu yivud  kwading milong ya chipolitik ni ya chirelijon. Pakwez, ikala a Protestant ap in Katolik, awonsu ading ij nawamp anch Atuman a Yehova kakwiyandjikangap mu yom ya politik, chawiy twalejanang pakad mulong ni pakad kwiyakamish. Yisu yivud antu ading ij chisu ni ndond yikurishinau, ni atubabeshang chakwel kangal twashikaku.

Pakwez, ap mwamu kwading yishiken ya ubaj. Dichuku dimwing, am ni Denis Carrigan, wading niyend chibol, twaya mu kulejan mu ul wa piswimp.

Kwikil chom chikusadika.”

Kushik mu 1976, patwading ku chitentam cha distrik a mu Dublin, namanijana ni Pauline Lomax, chibol wa pakampwil weza mu kwendangan kudiokal mu Angleter.

Chakin kamu, wayiyukisha ni kuyichidij!

Nasala mivu dikum mu Irland. Kupwa mu 1981 atutazuka ku shikol ya Galad, kalas ka 72. Kupwa kwa shikol, atutuma mu Sierra Leone, Kurand kwa Afrik.

Twading tushich mu chikumbu cha amishoner pamwing nau antu awamp nakash 11.

Akadivar avud ading atuzwendj, pakwez chisu chawonsu Yehova wayiwanyishinang maswir mau, ni yisu yimwing mu mutapu wa pakampwil. (Mat. 6:33) Chilakej, nivurikin nambaz umwing wading ni nfalang ja kuland kusu yakudia ya dichuku dinidia mulong wendendiy ni anend, pakwez wamwinkaj jawonsu mukadivar wading uburedina nfalang ja kuland mwon wa malariya. Kupwa diawiy din dichuku dia mband umwing weza wamufut nambaz winou nfalang chakwel amukas nsuch. Kwashikenang yom yivud ya mutapu winou.

Mu Sierra Leone twasalamu mivu chidivu. Kupwa atutuma ku Betel mu Nigeria. Kwinikwa twading chad mu mutiy ujim. Nadandamena kusal mudimu wa mu biro wanasalang kand ku Sierra Leone, pakwez mudimu wa Pauline waswimpa, mudimu wading ufanyidinay kusal katat wading ukash. Wasalang asaa 130 ngond ni ngond mu mudimu wa kulejan, ni watakelang malejan ma Bibil mayila kurutu.

Dichuku dimwing, mukadivar umwing weza mu biro wam ni nambaz umwing watazukau ku Betel, weza nend mulong wa kwinlejay. Panaeza chikas anch nimwinkish moy, wanzengamina ku yidjatil.
