Musings of a Recovering Lutheran: Update on Asia Bibi
I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, 

Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?

Then said I, Here am I; send me.

Update on Asia Bibi



The Italian Catholic newspaper Avvenire is pushing for the release of Asia Bibi.

Key quote:

[T]he daily newspaper, owned by the Italian Bishops Conference, released signatures of thousands of supporters who joined a campaign by former Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti, the senate president, Renato Schifani and the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Gianfranco Fini.

The online petition calling for mercy for Asia Bibi can still be found here.

For those who do not know who she is, here is the story about Asia Bibi's unjust imprisonment and death sentence for "blasphemy" against the Prophet Muhammad.

Please pray for Asia Bibi and her family.
