The Most Valuable Christmas Gift

December 9th, 2006, was the day before World Human Rights Day and Falun Gong practitioners from Frankfurt in Germany and nearby areas held an activity to introduce Falun Dafa and express support for the 16 million Chinese people who have withdrawn from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its associated organisations.

Local people were busy with their Christmas shopping. Attracted by the tranquil Falun Gong excercise music, passing shoppers could not help but stop, accept leaflets and sign the petition expressing support for Falun Gong protesting against the persecution.

A boy, who looked about ten years old, asked, “Is this against the Communist Party?” On learning that it was opposing the persecution and expressing support for Chinese people quitting the CCP, he signed the petition without any hesitation. After signing the petition, a couple asked a practitioner: “What else can we help you with?” The practitioner replied, “You can write letters to councilors in the Government and help us with spreading the facts.” They said, “We will". Three girls from Australia told the practitioner that they had already learned the truth in Australia. They came here and again signed the petition expressing their wishes. The practitioners gave them bookmarks and told them, “These are most valuable presents for Christmas.” They were very glad to accept them.

Although it was not a place that groups of tourists from China would pass by, practitioners still met some Chinese people. Most of them were willing to accept the “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party" - an editorial published by The Epoch Times newspaper and listen to practitioners' explanations. Two young men studying in Germany agreed to quit the evil Party on the spot. As they were going back to China the next day, a few Chinese people reviewing business affairs in Germany first asked many questions in detail and then asked for information. One of them expressed that he wanted to quit the CCP. Another said that he had already quit in Cologne. All of them showed their admiration for Falun Gong practitioners.

Although it was raining every now and then and it was gloomy and cold, a ten year old practitioner distributed flyers. As long as cars were passing by, he would immediately run up to the car window distributing information. Most of drivers or passengers would open windows and accept them with pleasure.
