The tragic religious and moral decadence on display at the Paris Olympics’ blasphemous Last Supper depiction showed how much Europe needs to return to its Christian roots. Tradition, Family, Property’s TFP Student Action—Europe took up the challenge by launching a series of campaigns in Germany and Poland calling for an end to the sin of abortion.
From July 29-August 1, TFP Student Action-Europe activists traveled in what they called a caravan throughout northern Germany praying the Rosary and handing out pro-life literature in the city centers.
Nearly 30 young men participated in the first part of the caravan which involved a four-day tour through northern cities like Cologne, Düsseldorf, Bielefeld, Hanover, and Magdeburg where they set up their banners, and raised their signature red and gold standards proclaiming the principles of Christian civilization: “Tradition, Familie, Privateigentum”

In Cologne, TFP Campaign Causes Shock and Awe
The inaugural campaign was in the magnificent old town square of Cologne with the stunning backdrop of the nearly 900-year-old cathedral. The Cologne Cathedral is famous because it houses the relics of the Three Magi Kings who paid homage with gifts to Our Lord after His birth.
After the TFP standards and banner were unfurled on the cathedral steps, the young men proudly proclaimed their faith by singing the Creed in Latin. If that wasn’t enough to get the attention of passers-by, the TFP band played the tune of “Highland Cathedral” with bagpipes, drums, and a brass ensemble.

The German public was deeply impressed. People recorded the scene on their phones, while many others clapped and gave thumbs up.

As the Rosary began, some ladies from the public joined the prayers.

However, others saw the pro-life banner and immediately expressed their displeasure. Several young American women began chanting: “My body, my choice!” TFP member Kobus Suttorp, from the Netherlands, responded: “Murder is not a choice.”

As TFP volunteers spread their pro-life leaflets to the crowd, several got into debates. One shocking debate was with two Satanists. The TFP volunteer asked them “Can you confirm that abortion is integrally connected to Satanism?” One Satanist replied: “Yes, of course, because you can choose to do whatever you want.” The TFP volunteer, followed up by asking: “So does freedom have any limits? Is it okay to commit murder?” The Satanist responded: “Yes, of course. You have complete sovereignty.”
“This Country Is Sick and Full of Atheism”
Later, the TFP caravan campaigned in the town square of Bielefeld, Germany. A Polish man in his sixties spoke of the apparitions of Our Lady and how much we need her help. “This country is sick and full of atheism. It needs the Catholic Faith and Our Lady more than ever.”

As if to illustrate the Polish man’s words, two men who were homosexuals confronted a volunteer. One of them wearing pink nail polish tried slapping the stack of flyers out of the volunteer’s hand. When asked why he did this, he angrily replied, “You don’t belong here! You have no right to be here.”
Sadly, the decadence and evil rampant in German society was apparent everywhere. A woman dressed in black with Rastafarian tattoos could not win with logical arguments, and ended a debate by saying: “You are all fascists who want to decide about women’s bodies.”
An older man joined her in attacking the volunteers who were praying the Rosary. He blasphemously declared “They say they pray to Mary, but they are actually praying to the devil.”

The caravan also traveled to Hanover where the TFP band marched down the streets playing the bagpipes and drums. One lady was so moved by the witness of young men standing up for the unborn that she broke down in tears.
Several young people dressed as goths had the opposite reaction. They refused to admire the beautiful sight by plugging their ears and hurrying away.
The following day, TFP members campaigned in Magdeburg, next to what was once the Catholic cathedral but is now in the hands of the protestants. The church was the first Gothic cathedral in Germany.

The huge town square provided the perfect stage for the TFP band’s uplifting music. In between the music and the Rosary, the group chanted several slogans like “Pray and act to end the sin of abortion!” and “With abortion, Germany will fade away!”
A Historic First: TFP Standards Raised in Berlin
On July 31, the caravan raised its epic red standards and entered through the impressive Brandenburg Gate to campaign in defense of the unborn.
![TFP Caravan Warns: “With Abortion, Germany Will Fade Away!” TFP Caravan Warns: “With Abortion, Germany Will Fade Away!”](https://www.tfp.org/content/uploads/2024/08/TFP-Caravan-Warns-With-Abortion-Germany-Will-Fade-Away-1120.jpg)
This was a historic first TFP campaign in Germany’s capital city. As the campaign commenced the TFP band played the “Highland Cathedral” tune, which attracted a crowd of several hundred people. Onlookers were quick to see the wonderful opportunity for pictures with the TFP campaign framed by the Gate.
However, that attitude changed once some people saw the banner with the message “Pray and Act to End the Sin of Abortion.” A young couple asked a volunteer “Why are you doing this?” The volunteer replied: “Because we are defending the most defenseless, which are the unborn children in the womb.” The woman coldly declared: “I had an abortion,” then turned to leave. When the volunteer attempted to offer a flyer to her boyfriend she turned and said: “No, we both did this together.”

Despite some negative reactions, many people were very happy to see young men standing up for their faith.
TFP Caravan Reaches Warsaw Poland
The final three days of the caravan, from August 2-4, took place in Warsaw, Poland.
![TFP Caravan reaches Warsaw Poland](https://www.tfp.org/content/uploads/2024/08/09-TFP-Caravan-reaches-Warsaw-Poland.jpg)
The group prayed Rosaries in different parts of the city including the central station, a shopping mall, and in the historic district next to the famous Holy Cross Church.
![Many people happily accepted the TFP Caravan flyers](https://www.tfp.org/content/uploads/2024/08/10-Many-people-happily-accepted-the-TFP-Caravan-flyers.jpg)
Many people accepted flyers, and some would even join in the Rosary.
During one campaign on a busy street, a woman destroyed a pro-life “honk” sign. She destroyed the sign by hitting it with some clothes hangers. Thankfully, two police officers intercepted her and she will most likely be charged with two counts, destruction of property and disrupting a legal public demonstration.

During the last campaign, around 15 friends joined TFP volunteers in front of the statue of Our Lady in Warsaw’s old town. About 50 small white coffins were placed on the ground as a somber reminder of the innocent children slaughtered by abortion all over Europe.
