As Sudan marks the tragic two-year anniversary of its civil war, global leaders gathered in London to pledge financial support and seek a peaceful solution to what has become the world’s largest humanitarian crisis. Pope Francis states, 'The suffering of children, women, and vulnerable people cries out to heaven and begs us to act.' The conflict between rival militaries has devastated the northeast African nation, affecting 51 million people and causing widespread famine. Matt Smith, Senior Vice President for the Sudan Relief Fund, joins to discuss how this crisis might play out. He also shares what role the Catholic Church is playing in trying to find an end to violence in Sudan.
