Last week, we partnered with the Vatican to bring Pope Leo on a Zoom call to 16,000+ teenagers in the U.S. for the Pope’s first “digital visit.”

We also premiered a mini docuseries in the Vatican on Christ the King, a Feast instituted only 100 years ago. The EWTN series investigates the roots of Christ’s Kingship in a world wrestling with power, authority, and hope. 

In a Europe losing sight of its Christian roots, the Church asks not just how to arrest decline—but how to re-imagine its role in a new cultural landscape.

In Rome, continuing the theme of hope of this Jubilee year, the Jubilee of the Poor became a powerful reminder that charity begins with friendship. Students, migrants and volunteers shared meals, stories and dignity together.

Travel with EWTN as we cover the Pope’s historic first apostolic journey to Türkiye and Lebanon—marking 1,700 years since Nicaea and offering hope to a nation in crisis.

Thank you for your continued support, and always remember: God has a plan for each of us, and He makes no mistakes,
