(Minghui.org) With the arrival of the 2023 Chinese New Year, Falun Dafa practitioners from all over China are sending their most sincere wishes to the founder of the practice, Master Li Hongzhi. 

The practitioners said that no words can express their gratitude for Master Li, who guides them on their cultivation journey and always encourages them when they face difficulties or tribulations. They thanked Master Li for teaching Dafa and bringing blessings to the world’s people, especially when the COVID-19 pandemic is ravaging through China.

One practitioner said she started practicing Dafa before the persecution started in 1999. Although she has made many mistakes along the way, she knows how precious the opportunity to practice Dafa is. She said she would seize the time remaining and better cultivate herself and fulfill her mission.

Another practitioner said the COVID-19 pandemic helped her family to see how the Chinese Communist Party has been covering up the truth, despite the mounting deaths of people. None of their extreme COVID-19 measures was to protect the people, but to safeguard their power. Her family all agreed to quit the Party.

Below is a selection of the greetings received from practitioners in Beijing, including those from the downtown area, such as Haidian District, Fengtai District, Chaoyang District and Shijingshan District, as well as the suburban districts Changping and Huairou.

In addition to individual practitioners, many of these practitioners came from the same family, including a couple and three sisters in Huairou District, and another four sisters who have a Fa study group.
