About this sermon
Louisiana is dealing with widespread power outages and massive flooding today, even as Francine has weakened to a tropical depression. The storm originally struck the state as a category 2 hurricane bringing winds of 100 miles-per-hour. Now, Francine is expected to weaken further. Louisiana reports more than 390,000 power outages. The governor says the National Guard is assisting residents and conducting search and rescue operations. Vice President of Mission and Community Engagement at Catholic Charities of New Orleans, Deacon Martin Gutierrez, joins to tell us what he has seen and experienced so far from Francine. Louisiana is certainly no stranger to tropical storms. Deacon Martin shares how this one compares to some of the others. He explains what he is anticipating will be the biggest needs from this storm. Deacon Martin talks to us about the importance of faith during times like this, especially in a place which has a lot of natural disasters. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
