To everyone's great happiness Grandmaster and Shimu have returned home to Seattle
《Seattle Lei Tsang Temple News》
After long and cherished anticipation by disciples in the U.S. and Canada, Grandmaster and Shimu finally safely returned to Seattle on May 11th. At the instant of seeing Grandmaster and Shimu coming up the airport escalator, the emotions of all the disciples who had been waiting to greet them at the airport and who had been missing them for such a long time erupted into a heartfelt outpouring of emotion with everyone calling out to them.
Although Grandmaster and Shimu were weary from the long journey and their faces showed signs of fatigue, upon seeing their beloved grandchildren Lu Hong and Lu Jiun, along with Foqing, Andy, Foqi, and Sunny, all the weariness and fatigue in their faces was instantly transformed into smiles and happiness. Grandmaster and Shimu hugged their two cute and lovable little grandkids and tenderly caressed their little cheeks. Grandmaster gave a big hug to his daughter and son whom he hadn't seen in such a long time. We believe the warm feeling surrounding Grandmaster can help to heal his body and spirit.

Grandmaster and Shimu cordially greeted everybody and many disciples offered them flowers while urging Grandmaster to get more rest and take time for a full recovery. Grandmaster and Shimu also happily posed for a blissful picture with everyone. Ambassador Liao Dongzhou, his wife, and Zhou Huifang, an attorney, also greeted Grandmaster at the airport. Master Mai Xianhui from the Chinatown district specially prepared a marvelous Auspicious Lion Presenting Fortune dance to joyfully welcome Grandmaster and Shimu back to Seattle. The atmosphere at the scene was warm and full of happiness.
Everyone walked together with Grandmaster, Shimu, and their family to the parking area. Prior to leaving, Grandmaster briefly gave his blessings to everyone. All present were very moved. At the same time, everyone also expressed their wish that Grandmaster would get lots of rest and fully recuperate. Everyone believes from the bottom of their heart that Grandmaster's good health is the greatest possible blessing to his 5 million disciples.
Welcome home, Grandmaster! Please get a thorough and peaceful rest until you fully recuperate. We ourselves will supplicate continuously for Grandmaster's good health.
