Read the stories in this episode:

• On March 24, to commemorate the feast day of the martyr St. Óscar Romero, hundreds of people joined in a march and vigil calling for an end to mass deportations and mass detention led by El Paso Bishop Mark J. Seitz and other Catholic bishops, clergy and organizations in downtown El Paso. 
• More than 20,000 catechumens in France are preparing to enter the Church this Easter, marking a striking 20% increase over last year.
• Spain's bishops are urging a renewed commitment to care and accompaniment following the March 26 euthanasia death of 25-year-old Noelia Castillo. 
• Cardinal Arthur Roche is urging Catholics to see liturgical debates through the lens of unity, not personal preference.
• As Russia's war in Ukraine rages on, Basilian Sisters Sevastiana Karvatska, Inokentiia Brattsiv and Lucia Murashko shared with OSV News their experiences of ministering in a nation both ravaged and resilient -- a place where faith is tested to the extreme, and proven.
