Mother Angelica founded the Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word (MFVA) in 1987 to preach and teach the Catholic faith using the social means of communication. The friars focus their attention on celebrating the liturgy broadcast on EWTN television and radio, leading retreats for visitors to EWTN in Irondale and to the Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament in Hanceville, as well as providing for the spiritual needs of the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration and EWTN employees.
