Read the stories in this episode:
- More of the nation's Catholic bishops have weighed in after President Donald Trump began denouncing Pope Leo XIV at length on social media, and then posted a now-deleted image of himself as Jesus.
- More than a year after Donald Trump pardoned 23 pro-life activists convicted for violating the federal Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances, or FACE Act, the Justice Department released a sweeping 882-page report that alleges the Biden administration weaponized those prosecutions.
- Separatist groups in Cameroon's Anglophone regions have announced a temporary ceasefire as Pope Leo begins a high-stakes visit to the country.
- In a letter to the College of Cardinals released April 14, Pope Leo XIV thanked the prelates them for their participation in the January consistory, and he prepared the conversation for their next gathering June 26-27 -- right before the solemnity of Sts. Peter and Paul.
- A record surge in adult and teen baptisms at France's Easter Vigil is drawing widespread attention, with secular media calling it an “astonishing phenomenon.”
