Governing Board

No bio.

I was born in Thailand but raised in Portland, OR. I attended Mt. Hood Community College for my Associates degree, then transferred to George Fox University for my Bachelor in Computer Information with a minor in Youth ministry. At the age of 18, I got baptized and gave my life to the Lord. I served many positions at Portland Hmong Alliance Church such as the youth’s ministry to alliance men’s ministry to Couple’s ministry. My wife, Hally, and I have two children Riley and Ely with a third child on the way. 

Elder Lao Shawn Moua (Tsaav Lauj), born and raised in Portland, Oregon, married to Susan Xiong and father of three girls: Hazel (5), Olive (4), and Willow (3). He earned his Bachelors at Western Oregon University in Criminal Justice and Masters at Crown College in Ministry Leadership. He has over seven years of experience working with Next Gen in multi-cultural settings. Today he is currently the Vice Chair of the Portland Hmong Alliance Church and shares a large passion in making disciples as an Advisor for The WAY ministry; furthermore, he is the Chair of PATH Finders committee (Mission, Vision, Values). In all this joy, he is also a full-time general contractor and owner of HOW Construction, LLC.

My given birth name is Nancy Ntxhis (as in luag ntxhis (smiles)) Yang. I have been married to my husband Sansone (Tsaav Xoos) Hang for most of my life. We praise God for blessing & entrusting us with His 3 children; Kyu, Bryce, and Anaya Paaj Lug Hang. I’ve been a Licensed Practical Nurse for the last 14+ years of my life, by simply being His hands and feet, as I know that though I’m serving others, I am truly serving the Lord. There’s a quote by Billy Graham that says, “The will of God will not take us to where the grace of God cannot sustain us.” Though I have moved all over this country (all of my life), through His guidance and providence, God has brought us here to Portland Hmong Alliance Church from San Diego Hmong Alliance Church, where we completed our training in TEE and held leadership positions that helped us grow in knowing what it means to be a functioning body of Christ.

Romans 8:28 tells us, “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.” 

I’m grateful & honored that He has given me this opportunity to serve as PHAC’s Secretary and for entrusting me to be a part of the Governing Board. My hope and prayer for this Church is that we may be able to live in obedience to love, encourage, support, and extend extra grace to one another as we further His kingdom here on earth; and that God will be Glorified.
