About this sermon
One religious freedom group is sounding the alarm about conditions in Afghanistan since the US withdrawal and the Taliban takeover. The US Commission on International Religious Freedom released a report this week saying in part, "through a series of edicts, decrees, and circular letters, the Taliban have systematically restricted the religious freedom of all Afghans, including those with differing interpretations of Islam." The report also says women continue to be banned from education, employment and freedom of movement. Jason Jones with the Vulnerable People Project, joins to tell us a little more about what women and girls are facing now in Afghanistan and the ways his organization is trying to help. There is still a lot of heartbreak from the withdrawal from Afghanistan, especially the bombing at Abbey Gate. Jones shares his thoughts on that and how he thinks we can help these Gold Star families moving forward. VPP does a lot to help families and vulnerable people everywhere, in fact they were recently in Hawaii helping out in the wake of the devastating fires. Jones discusses more about that. He fills us in on how people can help. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
