Awo ne ndaba entebe ez'obwakabaka, nga zituuliddwako abaweereddwa obuyinza okusala emisango. Era ne ndaba emyoyo gy'abo abaatemwako emitwe nga babalanga okunywerera ku Yesu, ne ku kigambo kya Katonda. Be bo abataasinza kisolo, wadde ekifaananyi kyakyo, era abatakkiriza kuteekebwako kabonero kaakyo mu byenyi byabwe, ne ku mikono gyabwe. Abantu abo baddamu okuba abalamu, ne bafugira wamu ne Kristo emyaka lukumi.
