(Minghui.org) A 92-year-old Western practitioner in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, goes out every day to gather signatures on a petition calling for an end to the forced harvesting of organs from Falun Gong prisoners of conscience in China.
The woman's name is Shirley, and she started practicing Falun Dafa three years ago. Shirley told some of her fellow practitioners a while ago that she hadn’t been involved in any Dafa projects, and was looking for an effective way to clarify the truth. She then said that she began gathering signatures at a public square near her home about three months ago, and since then, close to 1,000 people have signed the petition and learned the truth about the persecution.
Shirley says she is glad to have found a way to help fulfill her mission as a Dafa disciple.
Many events and functions are hosted at the public square Shirley goes to, and she has talked to a wide variety of people there.
One woman who signed the petition told Shirley a story that moved her very much. The woman said that her son had been murdered by a Chinese gang in Vancouver. The gang members wouldn't let her call for help, and her son died in her arms. But the woman held no resentment toward the Chinese people, and was happy to sign the petition.
A teenager who was passing by on his skateboard stopped and signed, and then took a photo of Shirley with his cellphone. He explained that he was sure his girlfriend would also like to sign, and he wanted the photo to show her what Shirley looked like. Sure enough, the girlfriend came by the next day, and signed the petition.
Shirley said that people who sign the petition often thank her, and tell her to “keep up the good work.”
She said she sends righteous thoughts before she goes out to eliminate any interference. She also silently asks Master Li in her heart to help predestined people come to her. Master Li is the founder of Falun Dafa.
“I leave everything up to Master, that’s why I’m getting such a good response.”
She added that she sometimes feels lazy and doesn’t want to go, but when she remembers the immense importance of clarifying the truth, she is able to overcome her laziness and do what she should do with a pure heart.
“I’m just so honored that Master has given me this opportunity,” she said.
