HMONG PEOPLE
The Hmong people are found throughout North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. They have their own culture and traditional beliefs, making them a unique ethnic group in the world. The Hmong population worldwide is about 12 million. Most people who live in China and Southeast Asia are agricultural and self-sufficient people. Most remain poor. Those who live in North America, Canada, France, and Australia have access to better education, and they have more significant opportunities.
HMONG RELIGIONAll of the Hmong in the world share the same traditional belief – Animism. They believe that everything has a spirit. Some of the spirits are good, and some are evil. They call on the good spirits and the spirits of their deceased ancestors to help them in need. They practice shamanism and animal sacrifices. The Hmong religion has no heaven or hell; all the dead are going to the same place where their ancestors had gone before them. Although they don’t acknowledge or know it, and they are living under the control of the devil’s evil power and influence. Their religion has no Savior to rescue them; animal sacrifices solve their temporal crisis, and re-incarnation has become their quest for eternal life.

PENTECOST
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. (Acts 2:1-4) |
THEY NEED THE GOSPELMost of the Hmong people in the world are not Christian. Unless they hear the Gospel, they will suffer eternal damnation in hell. God loves these people, and Jesus died for their sins. They need to listen to the Gospel of Christ. With God’s help, the Hmong Mission Society intends to reach out with the Gospel to all the Hmong people in the world. Hmong Mission Society is doing Ministry in the United States and Asia. Will you help us bring the Gospel to these people?
