(Minghui. org) The “Holistic Festival of Life and Wellness” event was held at the Plano Convention Center on June 24, 2018 in Plano, Texas, USA. The Falun Gong group held a booth at the event where they demonstrated the meditative exercises and also raised awareness about the brutal persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist regime. Many visitors signed a petition calling for U.S. government action and urged the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to stop persecuting Falun Gong.
