About this sermon

Reaction continues following a controversial funeral service held last week at Saint Patrick's Cathedral in New York City. The cathedral hosted the service for known transgender activist. The funeral featured inappropriate elements and behavior. It is unclear if cathedral staff were aware that the deceased was a man who identified as a woman. At the direction of Cardinal Timothy Dolan, a Mass of reparation has been celebrated inside St. Patrick's. Vice President and editorial director for EWTN News, Dr. Matthew Bunson joins to share what more he knows about how and why this service was permitted inside the cathedral. Dr. Bunson discusses what was involved in the reparation Mass and how unusual it is for one to take place. Some reports have said this was a funeral Mass. Dr. Bunson tells us what more we know about whether it was a Mass or not. He fills us in on what the main takeaway is from all this. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
