About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Now that Republicans have taken over control of the House beginning with the new Congress in January, parts of the GOP's Commitment to America calls for investigations. And after a whirlwind week, the US bishops closed out their meeting in Baltimore. Executive Editor of EWTN News, Dr. Matthew Bunson, joins to discuss how the bishops took on the topic of marriage and marriage preparation before closing things out and what else they discussed. And today, Russian air strikes killed at least 4 people. Just after midnight, President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter, "What's your reaction to President Zelenskyy saying that the missiles that landed in Poland were not Ukrainian?" President Biden responded with, "That's not the evidence." Meanwhile, a bright spot in the wake of what many consider a disheartening midterm, conservative school board candidates emerged victorious in a number of elections across the country last week. Education Reporter for the Washington Examiner, Jeremiah Poff, joins to share what more he can report. Finally this evening, a Vatican department dedicated to the Church's missionary activity is turning 400 years old. Head of the Office of the Dicastery for Evangelization, Monsignor Camillus Johnpillai, joins to tell us more about the history of Propaganda Fide, why it started and what sort of work it has done.
