Washington, D.C. Newsroom, Aug 15, 2025 \/ 06:35 am (CNA).<\/p>\n

EWTN Global Catholic Network announced it will serve as the exclusive media partner providing news coverage, broadcast, and digital streaming of Pope Leo XIV\u2019s first-ever digital visit with American Catholic youth during the 2025 National Catholic Youth Conference<\/a> (NCYC) hosted by the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry<\/a> (NFCYM) on Nov. 21. <\/p>\n

The historic encounter will connect the Holy Father live from the Vatican with thousands of young people gathered in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis and many more watching online around the world. <\/p>\n

According to the NCYC, the Holy Father is expected to address as many as 15,000 registered young people ages 14-18 from Catholic youth movements across the United States and engage directly with them during a 45-minute live dialogue beginning at 10:15 a.m. ET on Nov. 21.<\/p>\n

A select number of young people will be chosen to directly converse with Pope Leo during the session. The NFCYM indicated that details about the selection process will be shared in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

The encounter will take place on the second day of the Nov. 20\u201322 NCYC, which in addition to the young people will gather Catholic youth ministry leaders, clergy, and volunteers from across the country for three days of prayer, formation, community, and celebration.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the announcement, Archbishop Charles Thompson of Indianapolis said: \u201cIt\u2019s wonderful to welcome the youth of the United States back to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis just a year after we had 60,000 Catholics there for the National Eucharistic Congress.\u201d He added that \u201crevival in the United States isn\u2019t something to hope for, it is something that is happening. I am pleased to partner with NFCYM, my brother bishops, and EWTN to facilitate this important digital encounter.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the very beginning, EWTN has been the place where the faithful can gather \u2014 across distances and time zones \u2014 for the great moments in the life of the Church,\u201d said Michael P. Warsaw, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of EWTN. \u201cAs we continue to grow and adapt our media platforms, serving younger audiences has become an essential part of our mission. This historic encounter will not only inspire young people but also invite them more deeply into the heart of the Church,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Montse Alvarado, president and COO of EWTN News, added: \u201cAt EWTN News, we are committed to covering and supporting events of significance in the global Church. We are especially excited to partner with NCYC, NFCYM, and honored to work with the Holy Father on this unprecedented moment for the young people of the American Church with the first American pope.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s announcement, on the solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also coincides with the 44th anniversary of EWTN\u2019s first broadcast.  <\/p>\n

\u201cThis providential selection reflects EWTN\u2019s long-standing mission to bring the Church\u2019s message to every home and to support young people in encountering Jesus Christ and growing in their faith,\u201d Alvarado said. <\/p>\n

The encounter will feature opening remarks by Pope Leo XIV, youth representatives, a live Q&A, and closing remarks including a blessing. EWTN\u2019s coverage will also include broadcasting additional NCYC programming from Nov. 20\u201322, providing global audiences with access to prayer, catechesis, formation, and celebration taking place in Indianapolis. <\/p>\n

Philadelphia Archbishop Nelson P\u00e9rez, who serves as episcopal adviser to the NFCYM, noted that \u201cthe Holy Father\u2019s choice to encounter the American youth in this way is an expression of his closeness to Catholic youth, following in the footsteps of his predecessor Pope Francis who called the youth the \u2018now of God.\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n

Echoing P\u00e9rez, Warsaw pointed out that \u201cthis encounter with Pope Leo XIV will mark an important moment for the youth of America,\u201d adding that \u201cI am thrilled that we can offer EWTN\u2019s services for the 2025 conference and encounter by providing the means by which NCYC, NFCYM, and the Holy Father will have a global vehicle of expression. We look forward to sharing this moment with the world.\u201d <\/p>\n
