(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners in Turkey held a “Journey of Falun Dafa” photo exhibit in the City of Mersin to commemorate the April 25 Peaceful Appeal by over 10,000 practitioners in Beijing, which took place 18 years ago. The photo exhibit depicted the persecution of Falun Dafa in China as well as efforts by practitioners around the world to speak out.
Many people were moved by the exhibit and signed a petition calling for an end to the persecution, especially the Chinese Communist Party's state-sanctioned organ harvesting from imprisoned Falun Dafa practitioners.

Mrs. Saadet Caner, who also works at Icel Art Club, said that while she was following along with the movements of the Falun Dafa exercises, she felt at peace and with no negative thoughts in her mind. She said she thinks Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance are principles that everyone should follow.

Mrs. Gulgun Ciger visited the photo exhibit and told a Falun Dafa practitioner, “I heard about Falun Dafa in New York 12 years ago. My English wasn't very good then, so I didn't learn much from the flyer. When I saw Falun Dafa on the invitation to the photo exhibit, I hurried to tell my husband. I learned from the Internet that the cruel persecution and organ harvesting are still going on. It's such a disaster! A huge crime! It's terrible!”
