About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Several pro-life candidates claimed victories in primary elections on Tuesday, the first since Roe v Wade was overturned. Representatives Lauren Boebert and Mary Miller won their closely-watched Congressional races in Colorado and Illinois. Cofounder and President of Real Clear Politics, Tom Bevan, discusses what he thinks it signals that both Mary Meeks and Lauren Boebert won their primaries. Meanwhile, the persecution of Catholics and other Christians is intensifying in the country of Nigeria. Members of Congress are speaking out, demanding the Nigerian government change their ways. Taking group photos and meeting with NATO leaders, President Joe Biden attended the NATO Summit 2022 in Madrid, Spain. He announced he will deploy more forces to the continent in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, that has dramatically altered the security dynamic of Europe. And three more people have died following the discovery of migrants trapped in a truck trailer in Texas, bringing the death toll to 53. President of the Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles, Alfonso Aguilar, joins to talk more about the tragic situation. Finally this evening, today the Catholic Church remembers Saints Peter and Paul. In Italy, especially in Rome, the day is full of tributes to its 2 patron saints.
