(Clearwisdom.net) On July 4, Falun Gong practitioners from Slovakia visited Poprad, a city in eastern Slovakia, in order to inform people there about the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Although the weather was not very favorable at first, and it even rained a little, the passersby were not discouraged. They stopped at the petition table, read the informational materials, and signed the petition. When one young lady signed the petition she noticed that it was getting wet and gave us her umbrella, which then protected the petition for the rest of the event. A journalist from a local newspaper stopped by, took pictures, and wished that the weather would improve for us. Eventually it was rather nice, and the sun even shone for a moment. By the end there were more then 250 signatures on the petition.
On Saturday, practitioners climbed Kralova Holy Mountain, an ancient hill known for its many legends. When they arrived at the top, it was enveloped in clouds, so they couldn't see anything. But the practitioners were not discouraged and sent forth righteous thoughts. They wished the water springing from Kralova Holy Mountain (it is the source of four rivers) would bring Falun Gong and its values everywhere it flowed.
