(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners in Bavaria, Germany, held an Information Day event in Ingolstadt on June 26, 2021, to promote Falun Dafa and tell people about the persecution in China. Passersby signed the practitioners' petition calling for an end to the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) ongoing persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners. One local resident even went home to bring a family member to sign the petition. A company owner invited practitioners to her company to teach the exercises to her employees.
Ingolstadt has a population of nearly 140,000 people and is part of the Munich metropolitan region. Audi has its largest manufacturing plant there and the Catholic University of Eichstaett-Ingolstadt is also located in the area. Ingolstadt has a long history. The first university of the kingdom of Bavaria was established in the city, and it was considered a military powerhouse on the Danube.
On June 26, the morning sun shone brightly as Falun Dafa practitioners set up their information booth on Theresa Avenue, in Ingolstadt's pedestrian zone. Many shops, restaurants and coffee houses are concentrated in the area, and a continuous flow of people passed by the information booth. Many pedestrians stopped to talk to practitioners and learn more about the persecution in China.

Passersby sign the petition to call for an end to the persecution and express interest in learning Falun Dafa.
Ms. Eva T. is a German entrepreneur who inherited a company with hundreds of years of history from her father. When she saw the words written on the banner, she came over to the information booth and expressed her wish to sign the petition to show her support.
“Harvesting the Falun Dafa practitioners’ organs while they are still alive, such a cruel act, is actually happening. This must be stopped,” she said. “Please give me some more flyers. I will put them in my company's employee rest area so that they can learn about it. I will also put the flyers on the reception counter at the entrance of my company so that my customers can also learn the truth.”
After observing practitioners’ exercise movements, Ms. Eva said, “I feel that this practice is very good. Could you come to my company to teach the practice? We have a time slot for our employees to exercise every day, where we invite exercise professionals to lead employees to do exercises together. I hope to use this time slot to let the employees learn Falun Dafa. I want to make some adjustments. Can you all come in two weeks' time?”
A Japanese man came over to the information booth. He was alarmed by the tragic persecution, “This is too cruel,” he said. “We cannot let this persecution go on! Please tell me what can I do?” When he learned that he could sign the petition to show his support, he signed on both the petition to stop live organ harvesting from Falun Dafa practitioners and the petition to end the CCP without hesitation. He then asked the practitioners what time the event ended, and he left.
In the evening, when Falun Dafa practitioners were preparing to end the event, just as they were preparing to dismantle the tent, the Japanese man hurried over to the information booth with his wife, and said, “Great, we made it in time! I feel that there should be more voices joining the movement to call for an end to the live organ harvesting from Falun Dafa practitioners and to end the CCP. It was a pity that I was by myself this afternoon and my wife was not with me. Therefore, I hurried home, told her everything and she also wished to support your cause.”
A German couple accepted a flyer and started to read it as they continued walking. After walking only a few steps away, they returned around and walked back to the information booth.
“We want to sign our names to show our support, the persecution of good people must be stopped,” the woman said. “The world should wake up. We cannot allow the CCP to continue unscrupulously like that. What you all are doing is really very good. You all are truly changing China, changing the world. Please persist. Thank you guys!”
