About this sermon
It is Veterans Day and a new book, "Sister, Soldier, Surgeon" highlights the incredible life, accomplishments, and courage of Sr. Dede Byrne. A superior in her community, the Little Workers of the Sacred Hearts, she is also a renowned surgeon and army colonel and has been dubbed the Mother Teresa of DC for providing care to the marginalized in the basement clinic of her convent. Sr. Dede joins to share what she thought when she found out the author of the book about her remarkable life, Dr. Leisa Marie Carzon, wanted to write a book about her. Dr. Carzon discusses what inspired her to write this book about Sr. Dede and why now. In this book, she mentions the many ways Sr. Dede lives out her faith in courageous and bold ways, whether it is outside the door of an abortion clinic or on the battlefield where she was a surgeon in Afghanistan for Operation Enduring Freedom and even helped to rescue people from the Taliban. She talks more about that. Sr. Dede explains how her Catholic faith carries her through those trying times. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
