About this sermon

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden visited Florida today, where just last week Hurricane Ian slammed the Sunshine State with immense ferocity. They saw up close the devastation and human suffering the giant storm and its 150 mile an hour winds left behind, while bringing with them the promise of rebuilding. Meanwhile, the public comments period ended earlier this week for a Biden Administration proposal that could force doctors to perform transition surgeries and abortions. President of the Catholic Health Care Leadership Association, Doctor Steven White, joins to tell us what this proposal says and why there is concern among pro-life and Catholic doctors and hospitals. And California's governor recently signed a dozen pro-abortion and gender related measures into law. Many pro-lifers say the new laws are illegal. Executive Director of Heritage Action for America, Jessica Anderson, joins to tell us more about these 12 new laws and which ones concern her the most. Finally this evening, twenty-three men from the North American College in Rome have been ordained to the diaconate in Saint Peter's Basilica. Deacon Daniel Sessions from the Diocese of Birmingham, Alabama and Chairman of the Diaconate Planning Committee, joins to tell us more about the ordination and what it was like for him.
