American Author Survives Harrowing Escape from Haiti After Political Upheaval | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Mitch Albom is best known for his blockbuster book, "Tuesdays with Morrie", and decades as a sports journalist. What's lesser known is his work in Haiti. Albom and his wife, Janine, operate "Have Faith Haiti," an orphanage, school and mission in Port Au Prince "dedicated to the safety, education, health and spiritual development of Haiti's impoverished children and orphans". Earlier this month, Albom survived a harrowing helicopter escape during the most recent political upheaval in the country. Albom joins to walk us through the situation and what happened. Representative Cory Mills from Florida led the rescue effort. Albom discusses how he got connected to him and why he says he was willing to help. Albom says his story shouldn't be seen as an "adventure story" but as a tragedy. He explains that to us. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
