Te Tomokanga me te Taumata

I mua i Hatawara me Ngā Moutere o Kararaina, i tohia ngā tama ki te pwo (karakia tohi mō te kaiwhakatere) kia noho hei palu (kaiwhakatere i tomo). I aukatia e te Hāhi Katorika ngā mahi pwo e 50 tau ki muri nei. Kua rerekē haere tēnei, ā, ko ētahi wāhanga o te karakia e mahia anōtia ana.

E wha rā te roa o te pwo, engari ko te whakapakari mō ētahi marama anō. I roto i te pwo, ka noho ngā tama ki te whare waka, ā, kāre he pānga ki te wahine. Ka ako i ngā kōrero tapu e pa ana ki te mahi me te tūnga kaiwhakatere. I muri mai, he whakangahau nui ka whakaritea, he kanikani, he waiata te mahi. Whakaritea wehewehe ana ngā kai ā ngā tāne e ngā wāhine. Ka pania te palu ki te hinu, kātahi ka peitatia ki te tae kōwhai, he tikanga wairua nō tēnei. Ka whōatu e ngā whanau o te palu ngā tur (taonga raranga) ki te ahorangi. Ka haria atu e te ahorangi te ākonga i tana haerenga tuatahi ki tētahi moutere tawhiti. Tutuki ana e te ākonga, ka taea e ia ngā haerenga tawhiti ake. Kua kore nei te mesag (mataku).

Kei te taumata PAPAKUPU taumata - tūranga whakararo rawa o ngā kaiwhakatere te palu. He mātau, he pukenga matua, he whakawehi tō ngā Reb (tohunga whakatere). Kotahi anake te tangata o te moutere katoa ka eke ki te taumata kaiwhakatere matua. He tiriwhana ringa tōna, i ētahi wā e whakaatu ana i ngā huarahi whetū.

Kenneth Urumolug me tana kawa pwo
Nō te Hune 2002, ka karakiatia tētahi wāhanga o te kawa pwo hei whakatau kaiwhakatere i Hatawara mo te wā tuatahi i te 50 tau, hei wāhanga o te whakawahi i a Kenneth Urumolug hei Pirihi Ihueti. Whakaritea ana a Kenneth e ngā wāhine o tōna whānau, ā, ko Mau Pialiug, tohunga whakatere, te kaikarakia i te tomokanga. He tuku mana wairua tāna e here nei i te whakakai ringa ki a Kenneth.
