(Minghui.org) Mayor Sylvester Turner of Houston issued a proclamation declaring May 13, 2017, Falun Dafa Day.
Falun Dafa practitioners in Houston, Texas, hosted a celebration on May 7, 2017, to celebrate the 18th World Falun Dafa Day and the 25th anniversary of Falun Dafa's introduction to the public.
The proclamation noted, in part, “Falun Dafa practitioners’ determination and courage to stand up for Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance while facing severe persecution from the Chinese Communist Party has shown the world the value of life and the beauty of human dignity.
“The City of Houston commends Falun Dafa practitioners and extends wishes for a successful observance.”
