Fun
Summer Camp by the Seaside
[Taichung]
From July 20 to 22, hundreds of fellow practitioners from
different places around Formosa participated in the "Ocean Heart--Happy
Summer Camp" at the Ta-an Seaside Resort in central Formosa.
This
summer camp included a children's recreation camp, a learning-to-grow
camp, and a happy parents-children camp. The activities ranged from
drama performances, dances, morning prayer by the seaside, to an evening
bonfire, and various recreational programs. There was also a course
on human communication and a session for the sharing of spiritual insights.
For the little fellow practitioners, there were games like posture creativity
and building sand castles. Every one of these activities was exquisitely
designed for the full enjoyment of each participant, while the working
members cherished this opportunity to learn and grow.
The
summer camp was held at an open venue where anyone could enter. The
outside people, attracted by the enormous fun and joy of the fellow
practitioners, were filled with envy and were curious to know which
group we came from. Some of them even wanted to join in the fun and
games.
On
the third day, we arranged a beach-cleaning operation participated in
by about a thousand people. In half an hour, fellow practitioners had
completely cleaned the beach. We also shared with the local tourists
a video screening of "One World...of peace through music"
and a video of Master's TV program--A Journey through Aesthetic Realms.
