I have been to different churches in different areas. I never like any of the church and I never accepted Jesus. Even though, I didn't accept Jesus, I still pray to God. However, everything chances during my last year of Middle school. My family and I started to attended Hmong First Baptist Church. I thought to myself, "It's going to be boring like those other churches." As time moved on, I keep on attending Hmong First Baptist Church and getting to know the youth more, I felt more closer to my youth but mostly to Jesus.
Hmong First Baptist Church is the first church that open up and invite me to be part of their Sunday church family. During bible study our youth would take turn teaching the youth. My favorite one was the time one of our youth

    Personal Narrative: My Experience At Mercy Hill Church

    The site that I visited was Mercy Hill Church in Greensboro, NC. I went to a sermon, with some friends, that took place on a Sunday night. When we arrived at the church, we stayed together and observed the site. The members of this church all seemed to be within their twenties and thirties; there were a few younger children and a few older women and men, but not many. Most of these people seemed to be from Christian ethnic backgrounds or just unaffiliated with any ethnicity.…

    Hmong Culture

    The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down written by Anne Fadiman has been one of the most interesting books that I have ever read. It is a book that informed me about the very interesting Hmong culture and gave me insight on how two cultures can collide because of different values that each one may hold. The book intrigues the reader by introducing the Hmong culture and their beliefs. The Lee family is Hmong family that were refugees and settled down in Merced, California. The members of the Lee family include Foua who was the maternal Grandmother and Nao Kao was the maternal grandfather.…

    Essay On Hmong Culture

    The cultural clashes amongst the people of the Hmong and Westered based society of America about health care is a clash of ideologies and ethnocentrism. A refusal to find middle ground and a general misunderstanding of each other’s cultures. Each of these culture’s healing arts, be that biomedicine of America or the traditional healings of the Hmong, are working remedies that tackle the problems faced by healers and doctors with a unique understanding of one’s culture. Through the Hmong it is a spiritual and a truly holistic understanding of the body, while the American biomedicine divides things into parts, like a car. These two systems while approaching the same field with different understandings, can have similar results.…

    I think what he meant on that statement was that even if we could communicate effectively using an inerpreter but there were still so many differences in opinions that the problems would still have existed. What we see as abuse and neglect in our own culture, which can result in losing your child like what happened in the book. It looks like look that's how the Hmongs takes care and show how they loved their children and family . Even if the language barrier was solved, the problem will still exist due to misunderstanding.

    Personal Narrative: My Religious Community

    My religious community has played a profound role on my development as an adult, the three guiding principals of Zoroastrianism: "Good Thoughts, Good Deeds, and Good Words" guide my actions daily. Being part of such a small community while heightening my sense of being has also made me more appreciative and understanding of other cultures & groups. For me understanding others has become a key component in understanding myself. My community has also enabled me to be a better communicator- as often times questions are asked regarding my ethnicity and religion where I can act as a spokesperson for the…

    Personal Narrative: The Choices That Changed My Life

    It was a whole new church that my family was just attending while we were passing through the area, in all honesty I probably only attended five churches in my life prior, due to the fact that my family travelled so vigorously. This being said I wasn’t very holy I just kinda went because due to my age I ended up playing games most the time, never really having to be preached too. This church was contrastive than the prior experiences I was exposed to because I had to go to the main service area with my mother and father. To be blunt this was my first formal introduction to “my lord.” It began with singing, which I even had to endure at the children's ministry, but then came the hour and a half of my first meeting with who this man people always talked about really was.…

    Personal Narrative: My Involvement In Church

    Then in high school, I feel for this Baptist guy, who was just unsure about religion in general. I decided that I should bring him to church, the church where I found my faith. After bringing him to a youth group event, the kids in my youth group made fun of him and told him how I deserved a better boyfriend. Enraged, I stopped going to almost all church events. I would only go to events where there would be more than just the youth from my old church.…
