(Minghui.org) On April 24, Falun Gong practitioners from Canberra, Australia, held a candlelight vigil in front of the Chinese embassy, commemorating the 14^th anniversary of the April 25 Appeal, and calling for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

Ms. Chen, a Falun Gong practitioner, gave a speech at the event. She said in her speech that the persecution of Falun Gong is the persecution of the spirit, which violates the human rights, ruins the moral standard and the law, and is the persecution of justice and conscience. The persecution is not only a disaster for the Chinese people, but also a disaster for all of humanity.

Many citizens passed by the candlelight vigil, and expressed their support.
