Tues. Feb. 28: Today not a ton happened. We focused a lot on finding and were able to find another investigator.
Wed March 1: Today was a super fun day. We had a ton of lessons
and were able to meet a lot of people. I have come to find out that traditional
Hmong families have a TON of people who live with them. Today we went to the
house of someone we met at Hmong New Years. There was her, about 6 of her kids
and 4 were married and most had kids. So, there was about 25 people living in
the house and I am not even exaggerating. It’s crazy.
Thurs March 2: I have just been noticing lately how much we have
been able to meet people and teach as we have focused on following the Holy
Spirit and finding people. It has been amazing.
Fri March 3: Today we met a super awesome man named Xyooj Yaj
(xiong yang in english). He fought with the US in the Vietnam war as a
"Kicker." He would kick ammunition and such out of the back of C-130
Jets down to troops on the ground. It was super cool to hear his stories.
Also, today we were walking away from a house
of some people we met at Hmong New Years and their neighbors were outside so we
decided to go talk to them. One was about 22 and was smoking and his about 14-year-old
younger brother was there too. We tried talking to them but they didn't want to
talk to us so we walked away. As we walked away the 14-year-old pulled a gun
out of his pants to readjust it. Pretty sketchy but he wasn't threatening us so
its ok. Hahaha
Sat March 4: Today we met with a few people who we thought might
want to start investigating the Church. It was super cool to meet all these
people and talk to them about the church.
Sun March 5: Today was church. Not going to lie, church with white
people is not as fun as a Hmong Ward. Church is always fun but with Hmong
people it is better. Hahaha
Just some pictures to make you all jealous because I am in Fresno,
California and you aren't.
Hope you all have a wonderful week!
