About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: Pope Francis sent a telegram to King Charles III, saying he was 'deeply saddened' to hear the news of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and expressed his heartfelt condolences to the royal family, and the people of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth. President Joe Biden is also remembering Queen Elizabeth II as an incredibly gracious and decent woman. President Biden was the 13th sitting US president to meet the queen. And a number of lawmakers on Capitol Hill are remembering the monarch's visit to Washington more than 30 years ago. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has ordered the flags to be lowered to half staff in the queen's honor. Catholic author and journalist based in Devon, England, Tom Hiney, joins to tell us what the mood in the United Kingdom is right now.

Finally this evening, a Catholic author's new book examines the life-changing power of faith.
