(Clearwisdom.net) The first Miaoli Tonghsiao Minghui Summer Camp was held on July 23 and 24. The summer camp was sponsored by the town government and planned by local Falun Gong practitioners. Because this was the first time to hold such a event, we did not have any experience and we were short of hands. At the beginning, practitioners worried about it because there were very few practitioners in Tonghsiao, while most attendees were non-practitioners. Nonetheless, everything is arranged by Master.

It happens that a fellow practitioner has a colleague who had the experience of guiding boy scouts. Therefore, we invited her to conduct some of the programs for the summer camp. Thus practitioners became confident about the event. After several meetings, we constructed our program list and distributed the summer camp plan to all elementary schools. At the beginning, only a few children registered in the program. We felt a little bit disappointed. As the event was approaching, more and more people registered. Practitioners initially had different opinions and gradually learned to look at things from the Fa perspective. Practitioners believed that Master would arrange everything for us and during the process we need to abandon our attachments.
Recalling the process, each practitioner tried his/her best to do things as good as it could be. What touched me most was, practitioners from the local area and other places including Taipei, Bantsiao, Toufen and Taichung all helped with the event according to what they were good at. As long as there was something that needed to be done, someone would do it.
Attendees' expression showed their happy feelings. The entire field was peaceful and beautiful. Practitioners cooperated each other harmoniously as one body, which ensured the success of the event.
Two fellow practitioners who are instructors and the practitioners who came from other regions took pains and rushed back and forth during the two-day event in hope that attending students could realize the beauty of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance" and become good people. I was so touched that I could not hold my tears. What moved me even more was a fellow practitioner in Tonghsiao. She always quietly checked if there was something needed to be done and she just did it silently.
From this activity, I witnessed that practitioners had a common good intention, namely, to do things well. Each practitioner quietly played his role. This ensured the success of the event which aroused an impressive echo in the Tonghsiao area. Every participant enjoyed the event very much and promised to attend the event next time. Dafa has taken root in these people's hearts. People in the future will have great blessings.
