Flooding Awakens
Compassion in Guangxi
By fellow initiates in China (Originally in Chinese)

Torrential rain fell in parts of Guangxi Province from October 31 to November 8, affecting more than a million people. On learning about the situation, we launched a series of relief efforts in the heavily stricken areas of Pingguo, Ningming and Longan.

In Pingguo County, 100 bottles of cooking oil and SOS flyers were distributed, while RMB 30,000 was provided to destitute households to rebuild their homes so that they had a place to live. In Ningming County, 150 cotton quilts and one ton of rice were given to the people in need. A total of RMB Ұ40,000 was also provided for house reconstruction. In Longan County of Nanning City, the people received cotton quilts, rice and peanut oil together with the SOS flyers and DVDs. The local officials also helped to distribute the fliers. It was a heart-warming scene.

All fellow initiates are wholeheartedly thankful to Master for bestowing Her boundless compassion and love on sentient beings and teaching us the noble and compassionate way of life.
