Adieu Pa Mongwa (13th Feb 2021)

Pa, the news that you have gone home really hit me hard and even my wife too. After the dedication of the Pinyin New Testament you called me to look for time so we can go out and eat achu in celebration. You even said to bring my wife along. I was still looking for the right time for that. 


I spent several months working on the Pinyin App, sometimes I was working and murmuring. At times I will try to avoid you and your phone calls. On your own part, you never gave up on me nor on the project that you really had at heart. There was enough to discourage you but you stood tall. I learned a lot from your passion, dedication and commitment. 

You were a man of your word and wanted the best and nothing but the best.  May the unfolding of God's Word that you have laboured for all your life, give true light to the Pinyin people and may you rest Abraham's bosom. Eventhough in mourning, I have many reasons to rejoice and celebrate your life. You are a true example in our generation and your ways and words will forever remain fresh in our memories.

Adieu Pa Mongwa.
