Bound4life at the Vatican

European Bound4LIFE Report -- Ashley Webb -- August 08, 2005

Prayer outside of the Vatican has opened doors to the Catholic Church in Rome.

A team of 16 Bound4life young adults from the Morning Star Ministry left mid-July to bring the message of LIFE to Europe. Just this past week they decided to stand with LIFE tape on their mouths at the Vatican as a show of their support for the LIFE-message that the Catholic Church has ardently defended. The response was incredible.


“Our team thought that in order to bring the message of LIFE to Europe, we needed to hit at the roots. The Catholic Church has a lot of influence in Europe, and they are also, as a whole, against abortion.” Quoted Elizabeth McKenney from Charlotte, North Carolina.

They stood in prayer in front of the Vatican for only a few minutes before the police came to investigate. When they explained what they were standing for, the police were excited and wanted to hear more. However, they said that they still had to “do their duty” and arrest the group for further investigation. While the team was detained for several hours, they took the opportunity to pray and worship in the jail. Their worship opened the way of favor for them. By the end of the day they had shared the Bound4LIFE message and given all the guards LIFE-bands and the 22-word prayer and had made a special connection with the head guard, who had asked them for more bands to give away.


After being released, they came back the next day to find the guard. Miraculously, they found him amidst the bustling streets of Rome. After speaking with him, he asked them if they’d like a personal tour of the Vatican free of cost.


“God is so funny…We went from being detained by the Italian police to receiving a ‘backstage’ tour of the Basilica. It was so incredible we were able to walk through the Basilica and speaks forth His life.”

The guards now have a personal stash of bands to hand out in Rome. This is just one break in the floodgates as we continue to see the message of LIFE has spread into Europe. The European Bound4LIFE team is now heading from Rome to Germany where they will minister the message of LIFE at the Freakfest, the biggest Christian rock Concert in Europe. Keep this Bound4life team in your prayers as they will be traveling for another week in Europe.

VISION:
Nothing less than turning the Nation back to God.

STRATEGY:
Pleading the blood of Jesus that speaks better than the bloodguilt of over 50 million aborted children. (Heb 12:24)
We are calling for all whose hearts burn for mercy and justice to help us raise up a powerful grassroots movement that will plead the Blood of Jesus over the sins of our nation and move people to action.
The only way abortion will be stopped in America is to mobilize massive prayer, voting, and activism that will strike down legalized abortion and bring compassion and justice to the orphan and the widow.
This is a non-violent revolutionary movement of righteousness that will sweep through America and establish a culture of LIFE. We are BOUND FOR LIFE TO THAT END!
