Nuko bamwe bigumira i Yeruzalemu ntibashaka gusubira iwabo, ipmamba bazanye zigera ubwo zibashiriraho barasonza. Nibwo intumwa zitangiye kubwira abayoboke b’abakristu bafite ibiribwa kugoboka bagenzi babo babafungurira. Kubera imirimo minshi intumwa zari zifite, zatoye mu bigishwa bazo abantu barindwi bacengewe na Roho Mutagatifu koko, kugirango babafashe mu murimo wo gufungurira abashonji. Muri abo rero hatorwamo Stefano ari uwa mbere, Intumwa zibaramburiraho amaboko. Stefano yakundaga Imana byahebuje. Yabaye intwari, ashira amanga, ayobora benshi inzira y’ubwitagatifuze ndetse Imana imuha no gukora ibitangaza nk’intumwa.
