The Archdiocese of Washington’s website at adw.org has a special web page at https://adw.org/media-events/events/holy-week/  with links to the cardinal's livestreamed Holy Week and Easter liturgies. The web page also includes links to guides for Scripture readings, reflection, prayer and activities for those liturgies.

On Holy Saturday April 3, Cardinal Gregory will celebrate a livestreamed Easter Vigil at St. Matthew’s Cathedral at 8 p.m.

Then on Easter Sunday April 4, the cardinal will celebrate a livestreamed Mass at the cathedral at 9 a.m. Later on Easter Sunday, Cardinal Gregory will celebrate a noon Mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception that will be televised on the Eternal Word Television Network and livestreamed on the basilica’s YouTube channel that can be linked through the National Shrine’s website at www.nationalshrine.org.

The Sunday TV Mass is a nearly 70-year-old ministry of the Archdiocese of Washington that this past year reached tens of thousands of new homebound viewers who watched it for the first time due to the pandemic.   Cardinal Wilton Gregory will continue this tradition as the celebrant and homilist for the special one hour broadcast of the Sunday TV Mass on Easter Sunday, April 4, 2021 from the Crypt Church of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.

The Easter Mass will air locally on WDCW TV50 from 10:30-11:30 a.m.  On cable, CW50 can be found on Verizon (Ch 3), RCN (Ch 15) and Comcast in Washington, D.C. and Montgomery County (Ch 23) and Prince George’s County and Southern Maryland (Ch 3). The Easter Sunday TV Mass can also be viewed throughout the day on the Archdiocese of Washington website (adw.org/parishes-masses/sunday-tv-mass) and the basilica’s YouTube channel  (www.youtube.com/user/marysshrine).
