On August 15 1981, the efforts of Mother Angelica's faith and dedication launched EWTN into the homes of 60,000 viewers for four hours a day. Today, Mother's family has grown to encompass over 230 million viewers in over 140 countries via satellite, radio, and the web. All, who are now invited to watch, to listen, and to join us as we remember the life of the nun who brought us all together with her mission of spreading the splendor of Christ's Church to the world.
None of EWTN's programming would've ever been possible without the nerve of a nun like no other. Join EWTN in honoring Mother Angelica's memory with specially scheduled programs beginning with her television debut back in 1981, to classic episodes of her weekly live show, and now. See when these timeless specials and Mother's Vigil and Funeral Mass will air.
