By a Japanese Falun Dafa Practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) On December 30, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in Kyushu gathered in front of the Chinese Consulate in Fukuoka. They held a candle light vigil, protested peaceful against the brutal persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and called for a stop of the harvesting of organs from living Falun Gong practitioners.

Falun Gong practitioners unfolded banners stating "Stop the Persecution of Falun Gong Immediately" and "Stop the CCP from Harvesting Organs from Living Falun Gong Practitioners." Display boards were set up next to the banners. Many vehicles and passersby stopped to take a look.

Falun Gong practitioners hold a candle light vigil, send forth righteous thought and peacefully protest against the persecution by the CCP

The oldest among the Falun Gong practitioners was in her 70s. The youngest was a two-year-old.

They sat in a row to send forth righteous thoughts. With candlelight, they commemorated their fellow practitioners who died from the persecution by the CCP and expressed their strong faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance.

There was light on the second floor of the Consulate. But nobody from the Consulate came out to secretively take pictures of Falun Gong practitioners like before.

Drivers slowed down their cars to read the banners and displays. Some rolled down their windows to say "Way to go!" On seeing the banners, two young ladies shouted in excitement, "Wow! It is Falun Gong! It is great!"

It got darker and colder, but even the two-year-old remained quiet. With his eyes wide-open, he followed other practitioners to conjoin hands. All passersby were deeply impressed with the candle light at night.
