Suburbs of New York: Practitioners Participate in 3 St. Patrick's Day Parades - Mayor of White Plains Welcomes Them to Return Again Next Year (Photos)

Banner reading "Falun Dafa"	Procession

Falun Gong practitioners' procession was very well organized with a huge banner with the words "Falun Dafa" in the front, followed by a dragon dance group, an exercise demo group, heavenly dancers group and waist drum group. A banner reading "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" was very eye-catching.

After the parade in White Plains, Falun Gong practitioners met a senior gentleman and asked him as usual, "Do you know Falun Gong? Would you like a flyer?" The gentleman nodded and pulled out a well-folded flyer.

Then the practitioners hurried up on their way back. After a while, the gentleman caught up from behind and said gladly, "Look, I have your VCD now besides your flyer." He got the VCD from a Western practitioner.

The gentleman was very pleased and said, "I am the mayor. The parade is very good. Right? I welcome you to return again next year!"

Falun Gong practitioners have a wish to demonstrate the compassion and overall goodness of Dafa practitioners and the grace of Dafa to the local community. Spectators on both side of the procession greeted the practitioners by waving hands.
