The mass was covered live last night, on EWTN.

The sheer number of priests and clergy in the procession was awesome to behold.

The procession took more than 15 minutes, and included clergy from both the Western and Eastern rites. Despite the enormous task of distributing Communion to more than 8000, many congregants bowed or genuflected before receiving the Eucharist, many receiving on the tongue. The cathedral was absolutely packed with youth, young families, and a great number of religious. It was such an awesome experience!

REMINDER - full coverage of the March for Life beginning at 11 am EST, today, LIVE on EWTN.
