(Minghui.org) With the 2019 Chinese New Year just around the corner, the Minghui website is receiving thousands of greetings from Falun Dafa practitioners in China, wishing the founder of the practice, Master Li Hongzhi, a Happy New Year.

Many of the greetings have come from practitioners incarcerated for their faith. Despite the 20-year-long persecution still continuing, they hold firm to their faith and persevere day after day in the darkness.

“At this grand occasion of Chinese New Year, we'd like to extend our deepest and most sincere wishes to Master Li. Although we are now imprisoned for our faith and the persecution continues, nothing can block us from cultivating Dafa. Our faith won't yield in the face of violence and tyranny,” wrote a Falun Dafa practitioner from a prison in Anshan City, Liaoning Province.
