HMONG MINISTRY UPDATE

Dr. Fungchatou Lo

 

Currently, we have 15 LCMS Hmong ministries in the United States.  As the Hmong Mission Facilitator, my goal is to start at least five new ministries in the next two years.  At the present time, I am working closely with the Southeast District to start a new ministry in Charlotte, NC.

 

We have identified Mr. Danny (Zadang) Xiong as the potential Deacon.  With blessings from our Lord, Mr. Xiong will be installed as a Deacon in the next couple of months.  He then will start reaching out to the Hmong families in the Charlotte area.

 

In addition, I am also working with the New England District to support a Hmong ministry in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.  We are still yet to identify a Deacon for this ministry.  If you have any Hmong who lives in Massachusetts, please let me know and I will contact the individual either to be the Deacon or to be member of our new ministry in Massachusetts.

 

Furthermore, I am looking forward to work with the Mid-South District to start a new Hmong ministry in Arkansan.  We are also still looking for someone to be the Deacon for this new Hmong ministry.

 

Pastor Kouseying has accepted a call to Merced, California to work closely with the District there.  We are anticipating that there will be more Hmong ministries in California for the next two years.

 

Please keep Pastor Kouseying and his family in your prayers.

 

Please keep all the new targeted Hmong ministries in your prayers as well.

 

Thank you and God’s blessings to you and your congregation.
