About this sermon

Tuesday marks one month since the Hamas terrorist group attacked Israel, resulting in more than 1,300 deaths. Soldier, surgeon and religious sister, Sr. Deirdre Byrne was stationed with the US Army on the Sinai Peninsula and has been on several missions to Israel for the past 25 years. She retired from the US Army with the rank of colonel and is double Board certified in family medicine and general surgery. After a life of medical and military service, she was ultimately led to the Little Workers of the Sacred Hearts community. Sr. Deirdre joins to share what her reaction to the news of the Israel-Hamas war in the Holy Land was. She discusses what she is hearing about the needs for medical missionary work in Israel and in Gaza. Pope Francis has called for the faithful to fast and pray for peace in the Middle East. Sr. Deirdre tells us how we can expand on the importance of joining the afflicted in prayer and fasting right now. She gives advice to young men or women who are discerning the religious life, as it is National Vocation Awareness Week. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
