WATERTOWN -- On Friday, Jan. 22, CatholicTV will air coverage of the Mass for Life and Youth Rally from the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. Both the Mass and rally are part of the March for Life events.

The Mass for Life will air at CatholicTV.com and on CatholicTV at 11:00 a.m. and will be rebroadcast at 8:30 p.m. The Youth Rally will air at 4:30 p.m.

The principal celebrant and homilist at the Mass for Life will be Archbishop Donald Wuerl of the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C. with bishops and priests from around the nation concelebrating. Past attendance at the Mass has been overwhelming; as a result there are seven other churches in the area which will also host March for Life participants.

Also on Jan. 22, CatholicTV will air a pro-life documentary called “A People of Life” at 3:30 p.m. “A People of Life” explores what it means to be pro-life and looks at the pro-life issues: abortion, euthanasia and stem-cell research in both the U.S. and Canada, and focuses on the work done by the Knights of Columbus in these areas. “A People of Life” includes interviews with Supreme Knight, Carl Anderson; March for Life Founder, Nellie Gray; Project Rachel Founder, Vicki Thorn, Congressman Bart Stupak, and President of Life-Athletes, Chris Godfrey, among others.

On Jan 19, Father Frank Pavone will be featured in an interview on the CatholicTV talk show “This is the Day” which will air at 10:30 a.m. and will be rebroadcast at 8:00 p.m. Father Pavone is the founder and National Director of Priests For Life.
