Rome, 19th January 2011 - The following is an open letter the President of the Baptist Union in Italy (UCEBI) has sent to the Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi:
Mr Prime Minister
I am writing this letter as president of the Baptist Union in Italy, but above all as pastor, to call your attention to some verses from one of the psalms of David (101) Although responsible for government, David did not always know how best to administer the delicate relationship between power and responsibility. In this prayer to God, he makes some clear pledges, placing limits on his power and evidencing his own responsibility.
Rome 15th March, 2010 For a Protestant Christian coming from a country like Italy where Protestantism is largely unknown for the majority of the population, where Christianity means Catholicism, where religious journalists are Vatican experts and there is no alternative to Catholic religious education in the schools, a trip to South Korea proves to be an uplifting and encouraging experience.
