Barcelona, Spain, Jan 12, 2009 / 01:55 pm (CNA).- In response to the bus ad campaign launched by atheists in the Spanish region of Andalusia, the organization E-Cristians has decided to place its own ads on buses in Barcelona promoting the Christian message.

E-Cristians “praises the idea of putting the debate on God in the public square, and in this sense we want to make our own contribution. For this reason we are beginning a first campaign on buses in Barcelona, and we are working with the agency responsible for advertising.”

E-Cristians said the campaign would be financed through donations “from associates and from www.e-cristians.net. As resources allow, E-Cristians will extend the campaign to other cities and will re-run the ads in intervals throughout the year, in order to bring the word and reflection about God to the public square.”

The organization also explained that the campaign would only be possible “if we raise the necessary money. We will initially need $8,045.”
