Phillip from Towson, a small local town asked practitioners about Falun Dafa. He said, “The message you pass on is excellent. This is indeed what we need now. There are all kinds of conflicts in different countries—I don’t know what will happen next. I don’t know what God has arranged. Your group has broadened my horizons and at the same time, it makes people think, especially during the Christmas season. I need to calm down and reflect on things.”

Phillip who lives in a small town nearby listened as a practitioner told him about Falun Dafa.
