Dr. John Rao will be delivering the 26th annual Roman Forum Lecture Series in New York this year. Over the years this series has been an important study of the Church's struggle with the forces of this world, from which much can be learned in the present crisis. This time Dr. Rao will be covering the period from 1794-1846.
