每天的辛勞

一九三二年二月十二日,我從烏提內調往特利艾斯德。當我到達此城時,正遭到狂風肆虐。好在沿路有繩索可以抓住向前走,否則會被風吹跑。

我帶行李,到了羅西尼路保祿書局,稍待片刻後,我被帶到城的高處,在聖母修會會院有了一間房間。

六天後早上八點,我們乘聖儒斯篤號船去薩拉,晚上九點抵達,一路風浪大很不舒服。愛德婢女會修女到船上來接我們,陪我們到她們的療養院居住。

翌日我們去拜訪主教,請他許我們在他的教區內推廣良好讀物。主教很客氣,非常高興我們的使徒工作,完全信任我們,讓我們自由發展,假如有什麼需要可以去找他。

我在薩拉住了二十四天,我們訪問了城裡的所有家庭;我們到處受到歡迎,銷售了很多書。

復活節將近,我們搭茅勞西尼號船回到特利艾斯德。一路較來時平安。

聖週過後,我們乘同一條船到薩拉教區最大的城市路新比郭勞城。我們遇到了一位好本堂,他讓我們住在一家富有的船主家裡,他擁有輪船公司。

我們在這一家居住時,受到竭誠招待,他們的一條船在一夜之間竟捕獲了二十四噸的魚。我們與這一家一起高興。可是喜樂不長。幾天後,他們的一個漁夫在船上工作時,掉在海裡淹死了。大家都很悲傷。

我們為他長期的獻彌撒,為他祈禱。

從路新比郭勞我們走到路新格郎代,那邊有薩拉的修院。在訪問了所有的家庭以後,我們經過聖伯鐸島,回到路新比郭勞搭汽船去桑山高島,在經過四個小時大風浪後到達。人民純樸,衣著有土風。我們未能推銷很多的書,但一樣能訪問家庭,向他們說幾句話。

我們回到路新諾,動身到窮苦的漁村__迺勒西乃,在那邊我們像當地的居民一樣,只有魚當食糧。然後我們搭一條划漿的小船到十字角,是一座靠畜牧為生的山村。我們受到本堂神父的熱誠招待,他祖籍是比艾蒙丹,第一次世界大戰後 (1918年)來此作教師和司鐸。

五月上半個月,我們離開十字角,走到監爾索,那邊不許殺蛇,因為他們說蛇是聖高登濟奧所祝福過的,聖人的遺體保存在此地。在監爾索我們特別把書籍推銷給海港的海關官員及警員。

從監爾索我們去了連接菲伍美及達爾瑪濟亞的橋。我們到了聖十字堂,本堂神父請我們吃了午餐並買了幾本書。我們從那裡回到了特利艾斯德。

此期間,我們的修女搬到了白塔街29號。嚴守神貧,可是在新屋內,我們很高興能有小聖堂。

我們再開始特城的家庭訪問,無法回會院用午飯時,就在當地用簡單的午餐,有時就在大官邸的樓梯頂部人少的地方。

風時常追隨我們,有一次兩本書被風吹在羅西尼街上,書完全被風吹散。

城裡拜訪完之後,我們去波拉訪問。在那邊停留三個月,有一個星期住在聖十字修女會,後來住在愛德婢女會,靠近省立醫院。她們待我們如姊妹。在波拉推銷了好多書籍!

結束工作後,我們依依不捨地離開了該城。

乘茅勞西尼號船回到特城,從那裡去奧比齊那村,再至斯高比尼克村等地,在那邊很難找到投宿地方。

下午五時左右我們到了一個小堂區。在無法找到住所時,有人引領我們到了一個獨居的老太太家。在自我介紹身分後,她讓我們留下,她很貧困,只有一間房間,一張床和一個榻榻米。翌晨我們去買牛乳、麵包和雞蛋,與主人一起用早點,使用唯一的湯碗、一張椅子。

回到特城繼續工作。

一九三三年七月,我被調回阿爾巴的母院。離開特城時感到疲乏但充滿熱火。
