(Clearwisdom.net) The annual Chinese New Year celebration was held on February 14, 2009 at the University of California in Sacramento, capital of California. Over a dozen Chinese groups jointly organized the largest event in the local Chinese community. Practitioners of Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, were invited to take part.

A banner reading "Falun Dafa is good" faced the gate of the Business Hall, prominently displayed for all to see. The booth below the banner presented a variety of materials, offering brochures, bookmarks and beautiful handmade lotus flowers to visitors who happily accepted them and expressed their thanks. Many people passing the booth stopped to see what was going on, and chatted with the practitioners. They expressed their admiration and appreciation for practitioners' persistent efforts, and also gained deeper understanding in the significance of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. A lady from mainland China took all four remaining mini copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, saying that she will take them back to China.
On many occasions, people stood beside the booth for quite a while to wait for getting a handmade lotus flower with a bookmark bearing the words "Falun Dafa is good." Seeing their heartfelt love for small lotus flowers, the practitioners kept folding the flowers without taking a break. The beautiful lotus flowers carried practitioners' good wishes for people to quickly learn the truth about Falun Dafa and the persecution in China.
