(Clearwisdom.net) On Sunday afternoon December 7, 2008, the city center of Rochester, Michigan, was full of music and good cheer. Neither the cold weather nor the cold economy could dampen people's enthusiasm for the 57th Annual Christmas Parade. The parade was composed of processions of various groups from young to old, men and women. Led by the mayor, the parade proceeded through the center of the city. Along the route, thousands of spectators cheered as the parade passed. As the only Asian group, Falun Gong was again invited to participate in the parade. As a New Year's gift to the people of Rochester, the Falun Gong procession featured a decorated float promoting the Divine Performing Arts 2009 World Tour.
