Instigated by reports of 20 deaths in the last 22 days of Falun Gong practitioners due to torture and mistreatment while in police custody in China, Houston practitioners joined the world-wide, 3-day vigil in front of the Chinese Consulate to expose the crimes of Jiang's regime and call for an end to the torture and killing of Falun Gong practitioners.
At 2 p.m., practitioners gathered outside the consulate and distributed materials exposing the torture and killing of Falun Gong practitioners in China. At 7 p.m., practitioners held a candlelight vigil and sent forth righteous thoughts. Big banners reading, "China: Stop Killing Falun Gong Practitioners" and "SOS! Urgent: Rescue the Falun Gong Practitioners Persecuted in China" were held.
The vigil activities will continue during the weekend.
