(Minghui.org) Nearly 100 exhibitors joined the Health Fair 2015 (Helsemessen 2015) at the Odense Congress Center in Odanse, Denmark on February 14 and 15. This was the 14th time that Falun Gong practitioners attended this event with the focus being on the future of health and lifestyles.
Word of Mouth Brings Visitors
Practitioners met with more referrals this year. A visitor learned about the practice and said, “Your booth was highly recommended.” Upon hearing about the persecution of Falun Gong, he signed their petition to condemn the atrocities.
Fellow exhibitors also showed interest. A person working at another booth made three visits to the Falun Gong booth. He took a petition form first. He then returned with a signed form. He visited the booth a third time before the end of the event for discussions with practitioners, and he purchased two books: Zhuan Falun and Falun Gong.

“May I Give You a Hug?”
“May I give you a hug?” a Danish lady said to a practitioner, “I want to help share your plight.”
She signed the petition to support practitioners after learning that a peaceful practice based on Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance has been persecuted for over 15 years. She was appalled to learn that Chinese communist regime kills Falun Gong prisoners of conscience for profit by selling their organs for transplant.
A young couple asked about the effects of Falun Gong meditation. Practitioners responded, “We adhere to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and strive to be good people. When we better ourselves, we have a positive impact on our families, work environment, and society. Isn't that great?”
They agreed and signed the petition to call for an end to the persecution.

Many showed interest in learning the exercises. Among them, some were local, and others were from cities such as Aarhus and Andens from central Denmark and Silkeborg from western Denmark.
