Conclave Challenges, Christian Persecution in Nigeria, and Abortion Pill Dangers

Written By Pete Range

Join us for a critical live stream as we dive into pressing major global and national issues impacting faith, security, and human rights. We’ll cover the upcoming Conclave starting May 7th, where the next Pope faces tough decisions with only 18 conservative cardinals among 133 electors. We’ll also discuss the ousting of National Security Advisor Mike Waltz amid a Trump administration purge. Plus, a groundbreaking study reveals the abortion pill’s deadly risks, with 1 in 10 women facing life-threatening complications—22 times higher than FDA claims. Finally, we address the tragic loss of over 50,000 Christians in Nigeria since 2009 due to Islamist violence. Stay tuned for a personal prayer request for Laura and a reflection on St. Catherine of Sienna.
