Metz has a long history and is located near the borders of Belgium, Luxembourg, and Germany. It was once a historic and important cultural, commercial, and political city.
Practitioners set up an information booth at St. Louis Square in the city center. Their activities caught the attention of many residents and tourists. Around 20 local residents said they were interested in practicing Falun Dafa and asked how to contact local practitioners, the times, and the address of the practice site in Metz.
It was a sunny day, and many people came to the city center. Some took a leisurely stroll or ate at restaurant terraces. Tourists and locals also shopped in malls nearby. Several groups of police passed by the information table riding bicycles, walking, or in cars. People stopped to talk to practitioners and were happy to receive information about Falun Dafa. Several police officers had a good impression of Falun Dafa and said they wanted to learn the exercises.
Passersby were also drawn to the display boards with information on the persecution suffered by practitioners. They were particularly shocked to learn about organ harvesting. Many people signed the petition to show their support for practitioners’ efforts to expose the persecution.
Aussania is a Catholic and said she was shocked to read information on organ harvesting. She asked practitioners for information and signed the petition to call for an end to organ harvesting. She shared her concern for the troubles in today’s world. However, she said she was glad to meet Falun Dafa practitioners and learn about the practice. She took a video recording of their activities.
Myriam said she heard about Falun Dafa during a similar activity in Ireland, “I recognize you because I’ve seen such activities. When I heard the music and saw your yellow clothing, I thought I must find them and sign the petition.”
