About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: With inflation raising and gas costs at record heights, Republicans blame unchecked spending by Democrats and failed policies of the Biden administration. Democrats answer by going after big oil companies. Capitol Hill correspondent Erik Rosales reports. Furthermore, we speak with Kelley Henderson, executive director of Catholic Charities of West Tennessee, about the increased need for charities caused by the recent economic struggles of the US, updates on how it is dealing with the baby formula supply shortage, and more. On the pro-life front, Michael New, research associate at The Catholic University of America and associate scholar at the Charlotte Lozier Institute, joins us to discuss findings from the Guttmacher Institute sowing that abortions have increased by 8% between 2017 and 2020, its context with the anticipated release of the Dobbs decision, and more. In Rome, Pope Francis says he will celebrate mass next month with a community from the Democratic Republic of Congo. The Holy Father made the announcement earlier this week in a meeting with members of the Missionaries of Africa. Father Stanley Lubungo, one of the church leaders who attended that meeting with Pope Francis, joins to tell us more about the meeting with the Holy Father, the daily life of the Faithful in Africa, and more.
