(Clearwisdom.net) On December 23, 2004, Falun Gong practitioners participated in the annual Trail of Lights Festival in Austin, Texas. During the performance, practitioners demonstrated the five sets of exercises and performed dances and traditional Chinese music.

As night fell, the temperature dropped and the surface of the stage seemed to be covered with a layer of ice. Visitors seemed scarce as well. The practitioners who handed out materials found it hard to move their hands freely due to the freezing cold. Disregarding the cold weather, more practitioners joined in to distribute materials. The crowd of visitors increased as well, and many people were glad to take the materials.

As Christmas was approaching, practitioners wished people merry Christmas while handing out materials to them. The visitors happily accepted the precious Christmas gifts from practitioners--the facts about Falun Dafa.
