About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: While in Los Angeles for the Summit of the Americas, President Joe Biden made a stop at Jimmy Kimmel Live! He told the ABC talk show host that he may sign executive orders to defend abortion. Biden is getting a lot of pressure from more than 2 dozen Senate Democrats to sign those executive orders. They are encouraging the president to come up with a national abortion plan. The effort urging President Biden to use executive orders to pass abortion on demand is being led by Senators Patty Murray and Elizabeth Warren. The Department of Homeland Security warned that faith-based institutions may become targets once the Dobbs decision is announced. Archbishop Joseph Naumann from the Archdiocese of Kansas City joins to share his thoughts on that and whether his diocese is preparing for potential vandalism and even violence. Meanwhile, the Vatican has announced that Pope Francis will go to the city of L'Aquila in Central Italy in late August. Rome Correspondent Colm Flynn joins to tell us more about this trip and the reaction after the announcement. Finally this evening, today the Catholic Church celebrates St. Ephrem of Syria's feast day. Executive Editor and Washington Bureau Chief of EWTN News, Matthew Bunson, joins to tell us about St. Ephrem and his life. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective. Join host Tracy Sabol, our Capitol Hill, White House and Rome Correspondents, as well as many other diverse guests daily, to get the latest from the U.S. and the Vatican on topics regarding our Catholic faith and interests. ------------- EWTN News Nightly airs on EWTN weekdays at 6pm & 9pm ET. ------------ Don't miss an episode of EWTN New Nightly.
