About this sermon
While there was joy for the prisoners returned to the US, it was heart wrenching for families whose loved ones were left behind. Russian authorities arrested Marc Fogel at an airport in August of 2021. They charged the American teacher with carrying a small amount of medical marijuana. His health has declined significantly while serving his 14 year prison sentence. Marc Fogel's sister, Anne Fogel joins to share how her brother is doing and what the conversation has been like. Fogel tells us whether he said how he felt when he realized he wasn't part of that prisoner swap a week ago. It's been 7 days since the prisoner swap, Fogel discusses whether anything additional has come to light or whether she has gotten any more insight or explanation into why Marc was left behind. US Senate Candidate Dave McCormick met with Anne's mom is Pennsylvania recently and Senator Bob Casey has been outspoken about Marc's imprisonment as well. Fogel explains what it has meant to have their support right now. Fogel's family filed against the State Department. She fills us in on what it alleges and what outcomes they are looking for through that suit. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
