A woman told the practitioners that she felt she had been drawn to their booth by a strong energy. A practitioner gave her a Falun Gongflyer, and a hand-folded paper lotus flower bearing the words “Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance.” The woman exclaimed, “It’s beautiful! I’d really like to learn Falun Gong!”

Three ladies stopped at the booth and said they had many friends who would also be interested in learning the practice. They left their contact information so they could make arrangements for a class. One of them said, “My backyard is pretty big. You can come over to teach a large group in my backyard!”
