Practitioners in the Independence Day Parade in O'Fallon, Missouri, USA (Photos)
(Clearwisdon.net) July 4, 2002, Falun Gong practitioners from St. Louis, Missouri were
invited to participate in the Independence Day parade in O'Fallon, a town located
40 miles west of St Louis, Missouri. This is the second year that we have joined the parade. Although it was very hot, reaching 92o
F, many people came to watch the parade. Both sides of the 2-mile long parade circuit were crowded
with people. Since we often come to O'Fallon to hold Falun Gong workshops and have been frequently
interviewed by the press, many people had learned about Falun Gong before. Thus, many people cheered
at Falun Gong practitioners and asked for truth-clarifying materials. Balloons printed with the
words "Falun Dafa" were in high demand. A
group of middle school students gazed at the sign "Forbearance" and said "Forbearance, super!" When the Falun Gong practitioners passed by the podium, the host repeatedly read out our banner
reading, "Falun Dafa, Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, a high
level cultivation way for body, mind, and spirit." Then, he exclaimed "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance,
how beautiful! Thank you!"
