By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Hualian, Taiwan

(Clearwisdom.net) The Minghui Club in Hualian, Taiwan conducts evaluations and students write reports at the end of each semester. There were only a few new students this year and they were able to catch up very quickly. All of the students made steady progress throughout the semester. The following are experiences of some of the students in the class.

Students reading Hong Yin

Students doing the Falun Gong exercises

Zou Bingjun: "I joined the Minghui Club during the past semester. It is a program that can give you wisdom. The main activity is studying Falun Dafa, founded by Master Li Hongzhi. We were taught the five sets of exercises that are easy to learn and good for all ages. We also studied Hong Yin and Lunyu, and watched a film on the origin of Chinese characters. The teacher told stories during each class, and sometimes we drew pictures. I love this club. I want to thank all the teachers. I want to join the club again next year because it is a lot of fun."

Wishing revered Master a happy New Year

Zhong Yuxin: "I want to thank Master Li. In this club we were able to enjoy good films and stories. I want to thank the [volunteer] teachers for providing us with such a great environment. Thank you for your hard work, and thank you for spending time to teach us."

Lin Yuqi: "I am so glad I joined the Minghui Club. During the first part of the class we share our experiences on things we did that followed Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance, listen to stories, watch films or listen to music. During the second half we do the Falun Dafa exercises."

Making bookmarks

Huang Guanquan: "I joined the Minghui Club while attending Mingyi Elementary School. I learned many things from this club, and I learned how to get along with other people. The teachers are very kind and patient. They taught us to follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance every day. What I understand is that "Truthfulness" means we should finish the task we started and should not do whatever we please, "Compassion" means helping others and doing good things, and "Tolerance" means enduring, even when the task is hard or exhausting.

The teachers had us read Hong Yin and recite Lunyu. They taught us to make bookmarks and they showed us movies. We folded paper cranes and did the Falun Dafa exercises. I was so happy in the Minghui Club. I hope to come again next semester.

Hong Yuxiang: "I thought this semester's activities in the Minghui Club were really good. I hope my classmates and I can do well when we do the exercises and read Falun Dafa books. I hope that each time when we share our good deeds that follow Truthfulness- Compassion-Tolerance, every classmate will participate and improve together. I want to thank the teachers for showing us beautiful films and teaching us wonderful songs."

Jiang Yufan: "I learned many lessons in the Minghui Club. We watched video programs, drew pictures and did the exercises. Seeing the beautiful teachers and classmates filled me with joy. I did the exercises with my friends and the teachers, and I made lots of good friends in the Minghui Club."

Chen Mengqi: "I rushed to the Minghui Club on the first Thursday, carrying an application form. I am now in the fourth grade. I was in the club during the third grade, and I just couldn't wait to go back. A teacher had recommended the Minghui Club to me. I remember being nervous the first day and thought, 'Will the teachers be strict? Will the students be mean to me?' To my relief, the teachers were very patient and kind, and the other students taught me the exercises. I've not only learned a lot, but have also become a better person. I want to thank Master Li Hongzhi."

Chen Yucheng: "I joined Minghui Club during the first semester of fourth grade. I think doing the exercises can eliminate bad things and help us forget our troubles, bringing us into a world where we don't have to think about anything. The films we watched helped show the importance of Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance. If a person doesn't have Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance in his heart, he would not be able to make many friends and would likely have a bad temper, so we have to keep improving ourselves."

Pan Liling: "I think I've improved a lot since August thanks to the teachers' great efforts. I was a little scared when I first came here, but many students made friends with me. I learned many things here, such as Lunyu and Hong Yin. I think it's really important to learn these things, and I will study hard."

Yang Lanwei: "The teacher asked the other students to help me, so it only took me a few days to learn the exercises. I will finish reciting Hong Yin and Lunyu and follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance. I want to thank Master Li. I hope everyone can learn Falun Dafa."

Wang Wei: "I'm so glad that I came to the Minghui Club. Sometimes we make bookmarks and draw pictures from stories, and sometimes we listen to music. I want to thank the teachers. I love the Falun Gong exercise movements, they are so pretty!"

Hong Yujie: "I think this is a great practice because it helps us improve our bodies and our minds. The teacher is wonderful. She tells stories that I've never heard before, stories with deep meaning."

Zou Bingchen: "I've been coming to the Minghui Club for five semesters now. The upper limit was set at fourth grade, but I wanted to continue coming. My mom asked the teacher, and she agreed. So I've been in the club from fourth grade until the first semester of sixth grade. Now, let me tell you about the club in the past two-and-a-half years. The teachers told us great stories and then asked us to read Hong Yin and memorize Lunyu. They taught us beautiful songs and showed us interesting films. At the end of each class we do the exercises. Sometimes we drew pictures, wrote stories or folded paper cranes. This club is great because we try to improve our xinxing and learn to follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance. I will keep practicing diligently."
