UPCOMING EVENTS IN DC

NATIONAL PRAYER VIGIL FOR LIFE

The National Prayer Vigil for Life will take place from Thursday, January 20 through Friday, January 21 at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC. The Vigil program has been adjusted due to ongoing Covid concerns.   The January 20 Opening Mass will begin at 5:30 p.m. (Eastern) and will be immediately followed by a 7:00-8:00 p.m. Holy Hour for Life, concluding the evening portion of the Vigil program. Both the Mass and Holy Hour will be televised live by EWTN. The following morning, the Closing Mass on January 21 will take place once again at the Basilica at 8:00 a.m. (Eastern), and will also be televised by EWTN. 

Rather than the Basilica being open to the normal crowd of 12,000+ pilgrims for the January 20-21 Vigil events, there will instead be a 3,000-person limit, arranged through an electronic reservation system through the Basilica’s website. The web reservation information will be available soon. 

DC MARCH FOR LIFE

The March for Life will take place as a normal on-site event on Friday, January 21. Please be sure to check the March for Life website directly for related updates concerning travel and other logistical details.
