(Minghui.org) A devastating flood hit Fushun, Liaoning Province, on August 16, 2013. Nankouqian Township was the hardest hit. Many people lost their lives instantly. Stores along the streets were filled with mud. According to local residents, the flood hit so fast and so hard that there was no time to escape.

Many people died, and many houses were destroyed. According to the news reported on August 19, 178 bodies were cremated in Qingyuan alone.

Interestingly, however, everyone who had signed petitions to rescue Falun Dafa practitioners remained safe from the flood, and their homes were not damaged. They were soon involved in assisting others and provided accommodation for those who were homeless.

The people who survived were considered to be very lucky.

1. The wisdom of a six-year-old led to her entire family's survival. Her family of three lives near the pipe factory, one of the hardest-hit areas.

After the family got on the roof of their home to escape the rising water, the six-year-old girl suddenly said to her parents, “The aunt told us to recite, 'Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!'” When they started reciting these words, their fence collapsed and their yard got flooded. However, the water bypassed the house.

Their home suffered no damage. After the flood receded, the family provided shelter for the homeless villagers.

2. Another family of three who lives close to the pipe factory also survived without damage. They got on the roof of their home and shouted, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” Although the water surrounded their house, it then withdrew and did not get inside the house.

3. Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Zhang Guilan had left the house before the flood arrived. She had 5,000 yuan underneath her bed. She recited, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” and asked Master for protection. After she returned home, she saw that the money had stayed dry.

4. An elderly female practitioner and her daughter were in one room and her husband in another room when the flood hit, giving them no time to escape. She held her hands in the heshi position, asked Master for protection and repeated, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”

A stack of firewood in front of the house miraculously blocked the water from getting in. All three remained safe, and their door and windows stayed intact.

The elderly practitioner's daughter and son-in-law, who are law enforcement officials, were completely convinced of the miraculous power of Falun Dafa and grateful to be alive.
