According to the Episcopal Church, the webcast is an “invitation to Grow in Gratitude” during the Holiday season. Advertisements for the event will run through several secular media outlets, including USA Today and CNN Headline News. The program may also be viewed via satellite television through the coordinates: AMC 9, Transponder K14, Downlink Frequency 11980 Horizontal.

The broadcast, which was pre-recorded from the Washington National Cathedral, also features ads from 11 cathedrals and other Episcopal congregations that will be celebrating Thanksgiving.
