Minghui School Holds Summer Camps in New York and New Jersey (Photos)
By Rongxing from the New Jersey Minghui School
(Clearwisdom.net) Two sessions of summer camps jointly held by Minghui
Schools in New York and New Jersey were concluded recently. About 40 children
from 6 to 15 years of age from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and
Philadelphia had a good and meaningful time together. Teachers and students from the Minghui schools utilized the four days of each
session of summer camp effectively. They maintained 6 to 7 hours of group study
of Falun Dafa books, practicing the exercises, discussion and sending forth
righteous thoughts twice daily along with practitioners around the world.
Teachers also showed truth-clarification videos and explained the persecution of
Falun Gong in China. The children wrote to the Chinese government, the police
and practitioners being imprisoned, to call for an end to the persecution and to
support those practitioners who are persistently and peacefully protesting the
persecution (these letters were already posted on Clearwisdom.net). This year, two non-practitioner parents also sent their children to the
Minghui school summer camp. The positive changes in the two children after
learning Dafa made their parents aware of the grace of Dafa. After the summer
camp, the two children attended classes in the Minghui School with their parents
accompanying. After the summer camp, the Minghui School received much positive feedback.
The children enjoyed doing the exercises, sending forth righteous thoughts and
reading Dafa books. One child said in his experience sharing that he yearned for
Minghui school summer camp and looked forward to the next session. |
