Hmong Seattle Alliance Church

The Hmong is an ethnic minority group living in Laos. In the early 1950s, missionaries from the United States brought the good news of the salvation of Christ to the Hmong people who practiced Animism.  During the Vietnam war, the Hmong aided the CIA in a fight to stop the North Vietnamese aggression into Southeast Asia.  In 1975, with the fall of South Vietnam the Hmong fled to neighboring Thailand and eventually, to the US.
