TheCall DC Seeks 1000 Volunteers; C.S. Lewis' Home a Historical Landmark

At the Call on 7-7-07, 70,000 people stood silently in Titan's Stadium with LIFE tape over their mouths as they prayed for the ending of abortion.

Bound4LIFE, a pro-life volunteer organization, has declared that "the LIFE tape subpoenas the conscience of the nation."

In just a few short weeks on 8-16-08, hundreds of thousands of people will once again gather, this time to the National Mall for TheCall DC, to pray for the ending of abortion and for a national awakening. This national gathering of prayer warriors will run from 10 AM to 10 PM. During this time of prayer, participants will once again stand with LIFE tape over their mouths.

Bound4LIFE needs your help to make this possible. Will you be one of the 1,000 volunteers making LIFE tape at TheCall for what will be our largest Silent Siege yet? You can turn one roll of red tape into 300 pieces of LIFE tape to hand out to the crowd around you.

TheCall DC and Bound4LIFE need you to volunteer NOW for this huge endeavor. If you'd like to order a roll of tape, fill out the online order form. You'll need to order your tape no later than 07/31 to receive it on time.

C. S. Lewis' Home Designated a Historic Landmark

According to the Christian Post, the famous home known as "The Kilns," where C.S. Lewis lived from 1930 to 1963 and wrote The Screwtape Letters and The Chronicles of Narnia, is being designated as a historic landmark.

The Oxfordshire Blue Plaques Board will be unveiling a special blue plaque at The Kilns on Saturday, July 26, to mark Lewis' contribution to scholarship and literature.

"We have very stringent rules and only award blue plaques for the highest level of achievement," said Eda Forbes, secretary to the Oxfordshire Blue Plaques, which recognizes famous residences in Oxford with a permanently-installed plaque.

The report also noted the estate still houses the wardrobe that inspired the Narnia series.

Today, the Kilns is a Christian study center.
