ko Nicola taku ingoa.
He wahine whakawhiti wahine moepuku ma ("transbian") ahau no Kotimana, Welsh me te pakeha. I te tekau tau atu i 1800 ka noho oku tupuna ki Aotearoa. He neuro-divergent ahau (he tino mahi autistic me te ADHD). Ko taku autism i hanga ahau hei aukume whakaweti.
Ua paari au i roto i te fare o te hoê Orometua Pentecostal. He ngawari, he atawhai oku matua (ahakoa he tino rahui a Papa). Heoi, i mau ratou me ta matou Hahi i nga whakapono e pa ana ki te ira tangata, na te mea i tino koha ahau i roto, a, i paopao ahau ki a koe ano me te mauahara. Ko tenei, nui atu i te mahi whakaweti, i tino whakapouri i ahau, a ka tae ki te 54 oku tau mo te mea ka taea te whakawhiti hei whakaaro whakaaro. E ono tau ano kia houhia te rongo me te whakawhiti me etahi atu e rima ka puta ki te iwi whanui. Heoi kei te noho hohonu ahau ki te taha wairua. He Pariha Mihinare ahau i Tamaki Makaurau (Tamaki Makaurau) kei reira ahau hei Vicar ki tetahi huihuinga Mihinare (Episcopalian) maha me te awhina hoki ki te arahi i tetahi huihuinga LGBTQIA+.
Na kei te mohio ahau ki te rangirua me te uaua o te haerenga o te tangata. A kei te mohio ahau ki te "whakawhitinga" (no nga roopu iti ake i te kotahi).
He korero taku mo te Tiaki Aged (Dementia and Palliative). Ko taku tohu paetahi kei roto i te kaupapa ako i te taha Wairua. I muri mai ka oti i ahau tetahi Tohu Paetahi i roto i te Tikanga Tikanga (Pastoral) me te Tohu Paetahi mo te Haua me te Hauora Hinengaro. I nga ra o te wiki, i te mea kaore au i te whakangungu, ka tautoko ahau i nga tangata whai wheako o te hauatanga hinengaro.
Ahakoa he tangata LGBTQI++ koe e rapu ana mo te whakahoa me te tautoko hononga, he tangata whakawhiti, he tangata torotoro ira tangata ranei e rapu tautoko ana i to haerenga, he hoa ranei, he mema o te whanau, he kaituku mahi, he rata, he hoa ranei e tautoko ana i tetahi atu, ka koa ahau ki te hoa haere i a koe i to haerenga.
