(CHRISTIAN POST) – International protests are being planned throughout the month of January after the Norwegian government removed five children from their Christian parents under accusations of “religious indoctrination.”
Protests are planned for the rest of January in the Czech Republic, Latvia, Austria, Romania, Spain, Ireland, India, Poland, and Australia, along with several other countries to speak out against the recent separation of five Christian children from their parents at the hands of government officials.
In November 2015, Norway’s child welfare services, known as Barnevernet, removed five children, including three sons and two daughters, from parents Ruth and Marius Bodnariu, residents of Naustdal and members of the Pentecostal Church.
The parents were then accused by child services of "Christian radicalism and indoctrination".
Along with accusations of "indoctrination," the parents also faced accusations of physical abuse against their children, which they deny.
A petition and a Facebook page have been set up in support of the parents as they continue to appeal to have their family reunited again.
"They are just a normal Christian family trying to raise their children in the knowledge of God! There is no documented or otherwise abuse of any kind in this family," an iPetition that has gained 25,000 signatures since November reads.
