UK: Birmingham Practitioners Promote Falun Dafa on a District Event (Photos)

On the morning of July 13, 2002 (Saturday), Falun Dafa practitioners of the city of Birmingham in the United Kingdom came to Victoria Square in front of city hall to attend a local district event. Practitioners set up banners and Dafa introductory materials in both English and Chinese on the table reserved before hand.

The Falun Dafa practitioners cooperated with each other. Some demonstrated the exercises and others distributed the truth-clarifying materials. The serene scene of practitioners meditating in the peaceful Dafa music attracted many visitors. One old man who came to visit his children from China recently brought his grandson to our booth. He carefully watched and read through "The Journey of Falun Dafa" picture show. When he left, he sincerely thanked us. A young man from Pakistan told us that he could feel our strong energy field and said he would come to our classes. He also told us that he knew the evil persecution in China because he saw us promoting Falun Dafa in the city often. Another man from Spain met us again this year. He came to our booth last year. He wanted to learn more about Falun Dafa because he could feel that our energy field was very righteous. When he learnt that the Spanish version of Zhuan Falun was available, he was very happy and said he would come to our practice site to learn the exercises. Many visitors came to our tables to ask questions and request flyers.

The weather was supportive, too. It was bright and sunny all day long. When the event finished near 5 p.m., about 2000 flyers were distributed. Our understanding is that we need to demonstrate more. Besides distributing flyers, our exercise demonstration and Dafa music both will give audiences a good memory of Falun Dafa. This will help those who didn't get our truth-clarifying materials to build up a righteous mindset toward Falun Dafa.
