More than 30,000 people gathered together in Grey Lynn Park in Auckland, New Zealand on November 18 for the annual Christmas jamboree. This year, practitioners from New Zealand manned a booth in a high-traffic area, passing out materials to the local residents, allowing them to learn the truth about Dafa and about what has been going on in China. While some practitioners set up the poster boards and banners, other practitioners started to practice. Many people were attracted to our booth once they saw the peaceful movements. Also, since the local TV station had broadcast a program in which Falun Gong practitioners were interviewed two days earlier, many local residents were already somewhat familiar with Dafa. At the booth, some people learned the movements, while others asked questions. Many veteran practitioners also came to participate in this Hongfa (Dafa-promoting) activity; even practitioners who cannot speak English were passing out flyers to people. All of the practitioners felt happy to be contributing their efforts to help promote Dafa to more people.
