- Wiremu_Te_Awhitu abstract "Wiremu Hakopa Toa Te Awhitu (28 July 1914 - 29 July 1994) was the first Māori to be ordained a Roman Catholic priest. Born at Okahukura near Taumarunui, he was the third of 10 children of Tamakaitoa (Toa) Te Awhitu and his wife Katarina Toia Bell. His family belonged to the Ngāti Hauaroa and Ngāti Maniapoto iwi. His early education was at Ongarue and Okahukura schools. At Okahukura he was influenced by headmaster R. A. Watson, known to Māori as Te Miro Watihana, an English convert to Catholicism, who also gave local children religious lessons, working with the Mill Hill priests. Through the efforts of Watson and the Mill Hill priests, Wiremu attended St Peter's Māori College, Northcote, Auckland, in 1931–32. Watson, also then living in Auckland, taught him to master English. Te Awhitu practised Māori crafts and became a skilled carver and artist. He then attended St. Patrick's College, Silverstream to prepare for Mount St Mary's Seminary, Greenmeadows, which he entered in 1936. He was ordained a priest in St Patrick’s Church, Napier, on 17 December 1944 by Bishop Liston of Auckland and celebrated his first Mass the following day in the church of the Immaculate Conception at Pakipaki. He was stationed in 1945-46 at Otaki, and then spent 11 years at Meeanee and Pakipaki in Hawke's Bay. He was a member of the Hawke’s Bay Māori mission, and his pastoral area extended from Wairoa to Dannevirke. In 1958 he suffered a severe stroke which left him unable to speak. He convalesced at Hato Paora College, Feilding, and by 1966 was able to resume his ministry. He spent time at Waitara and Normanby in Taranaki. In 1968 he moved to Jerusalem on the Whanganui River, and was there when James K. Baxter established his commune. He was one of the poet’s religious instructors, and in 1972 headed the priests celebrating Baxter’s requiem mass. Wiremu Te Awhitu retired to Okahukura in 1989 where he died in 1994. His tangi was held at Ngapuwaiwaha marae, Taumarunui, and his requiem mass was celebrated in the church of the Immaculate Conception, Taumarunui. He was buried in the family cemetery at Okahukura, on the banks of the Ongarue River.".
