Raymond Arroyo, a TV journalist whose work writing a book about an extraordinary nun helped spur him to evacuate his home and business in New Orleans just before Katrina hit, will be the guest host today on "Farah Live," the nationally syndicated talk program.
Arroyo, news director of EWTN, a global Catholic television network, says he heard God specifically prompting him to take his family, including his 10-day-old daughter, to safety in Alabama the day before Hurricane Katrina slammed the Gulf Coast, resulting in the flooding of New Orleans. The journalist says he had the faith to heed the warning he sensed due to the inspiration of Mother Angelica, a Catholic nun who built a television and radio network that reaches into more than 100 million households around the world. Arroyo's book, "Mother Angelica: The Remarkable Story of a Nun, Her Nerve and a Network of Miracles," was released last week.
Besides Arroyo's suburban home being flooded, his family's restaurant, an Italian establishment that's been operating in the Big Easy for 50 years, was also submerged. (Thanks to WorldNetDaily for the heads up.)
