(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners participated in the Association and Business Fair in the town of Hallsberg from April 7th - 8th, 2006. Five thousand people visited the fair, which featured one hundred and twenty booths. At the Falun Gong booth, visitors had the opportunity to learn to make paper lotus flowers and watch practitioners demonstrate the Falun Gong exercises. Many people young and old visited the booth and were astounded by the harmony and peacefulness practitioners radiated, despite the crowd of visitors in the hall. Many people were interested to learn more about Falun Gong, the Communist Party's brutal persecution in China, and the changes that are happening because the Chinese people and the rest of the world are becoming more aware of the situation. The visitors could sign a petition and talk with a Chinese practitioner who had experienced persecution in China.
