Rob Qeei and Elder Strong's Birthday

So, I forgot my journal so I will do the best I can to recap the week!

So, this week we visited a lot of people! One guy let me play his Rab Qeej, a really cool Hmong instrument. They use it for a lot of Hmong ceremonies and stuff. The ceremony it is most used for is at a funeral. It is played in a swinging motion and sometimes they dance and they use it to guide the deceased person's spirit to the next life. Pretty cool!

Also, it was Elder Strong's birthday so we decorated his wall. It was fun. 

On Saturday, we saw a huge ghetto party with like 150 people blocking a whole street so we weren't able to get to our appointment. That was a bummer. 

Yup not too much else happened. We were able to find some new investigators and we have one investigator who plans to be baptized soon so that is exciting! Hope everyone has a good week!

Also, the last picture is of a Hmong door. Not too sure what the goat horns are for but the knives kill evil spirits as they try to come inside so that is helpful.
