About this sermon
In Washington DC, the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom held a hearing today discussing Nicaragua and the deterioration of religious freedom in the country. According to USCIRF, freedom of religion or belief has been severely restricted since 2018 in Nicaragua under the Ortega regime. Catholics in particular have been targeted in the majority Catholic country with Catholic laypeople and clergy being arrested, imprisoned and exiled as in the case of Bishop Rolando Alvarez who is now living in exile in Rome. President of the Global Liberty Alliance, Jason Poblete, joins to share his biggest takeaway from today's hearing and what he hopes will come from it. Poblete talks about the regime not only targeting Catholics, but also Protestants and Indigenous religious communities. He discusses what the United States and the international community can do when it comes to Nicaragua. Poblete explains more about the Holy See and what the faithful can do. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
