I got my eye sight back thanks to Jesus I don’t care what anyone says I know it’s true.

I walked away from Catholicism many years ago. I didn't understand soooooo much. I've been confused but decided to find out the truth. EWTN popped up on my phone. The rosary was being recited. The words were reverent and eloquently spoken. I got hooked immediately. Next I watched father Chris. WHAT AN ANSWER TO PRAYER. Thank you father for explaining things in a way that I can accept.

I am coming out of 40+ years of Calvinism and this is an enormously helpful video for me.

For anyone re-listening…. The fruits of these talks unfold and refresh each time there is more 🙏 thanksgiving for father Chris’s work!!! As a 7th grade catechist I know what it means to prepare ❤️ thank you for lending your heart and ear to the Holy Spirit!

Fr I have to add this- many years ago, I left the church. I remained Christian in my beliefs and attitude, but no longer attended Mass or rec’d sacraments. The last 5-6 years, I’ve felt a pull back to my faith. Started attending Mass occasionally. I promised my mother before she died, that I would get fully back into the church. I’m not sure how I found your Divine Mercy channel on KZfaq, call it Divine intervention, but in an effort and desire to relearn my Catholic faith, I started watching your teaching videos. I’m learning a lot from you, and your enthusiasm you project through your lectures is contagious. I find myself excited about being Catholic for the first time in my life!! I am so grateful and thankful for all you and the other Marian brothers are doing to educate us and help guide us on our stairway to Heaven. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I feel like my mother may have helped me find a connection with you. Who knows, she may have saved my soul. But I feel like you have helped rescue my soul as well! Please continue to post these videos. I watch them all! I can feel my faith becoming stronger and my soul feels more pure than when I started this journey a few years ago! May God bless you for all you are doing to help us all get to Heaven!! 🙏❤️

NOBODY TEACHES LIKE FATHER CHRIS ALAR!!!!! PRAISE BE JESUS CHRIST!!!! : )

Fr. Chris, I just turned 60 and this is one of the best catechism/s I ever had. Among all others that you so painstakingly researched, studied and generously shared with us. Thank you as always

This is so extremely organized and well explained. What a great speaker! God truly blessed you with wisdom. Thank you!! As a very logical thinker I’ve struggled with questions as a Protestant although now I’m converting to Catholicism. I’ve now baptized my 2nd baby into the church and plan to get baptized myself along with my 8 year old. What a blessing.

Because of your talk on Saint Charbel…who performed more miracles than ANY other Saint (besides our Blessed Mother, Mary)I am praying a Novena to him now for the healing of my daughter, who is suffering from an illness for many years. Plus, now….she has another heavy cross to bear w/much physical & mental distress. I ask for your prayers & those of all of your followers of your “Explanation of the Faith” series too. This series has been a tremendous blessing for me, Father Alar. I pray that you…. & all of your listeners, will be blessed by your words of faith & you’ll continue on in your mission of bringing to all…. the message of God’s mercy & His unending love for all of His children! Thank you SO much, Father Chris! God bless you & keep you strong & healthy for whatever work He has planned for you to do for Him! 🙏

Thank you Fr. Chris as always! I feel blessed everytime I'm listening to you and all the Marian Priests as well.. God bless us all🙏

Thank you truly for the wonderful lesson on the Saints.May the Saints 🙏 pray for us here on earth .

Thank you so much Father Chris, ❤️

May God bless all viewers. Thank you Fr. Alar.

To pray is to ask not worship. We worship only God but we may ask and pray to all those living in God's eternal rest. To pray is also to communicate.

Douglas and I Gloria are thankful for this He is cradle Catholic 62yr I'm a convert of 14 years Pray for our sacramental life Thank you Fr Chris

Father Alar, I love learning about the Catholic Faith from you ♥️

Thank you Father Chris Alar for teaching ,explaining us our faith. 🙏 God bless you more 🙏

I was blessed to have a friend from the Netherlands bring a picture of the seamless robe of Christ she took when she visited the Trier Cathedral in Germany.......with this talk I understand Even more... So blessed to be Catholic

I have numerous favorite Saints growing up, but had a deep and strong devotion to St. Pio of Pietrelcina, and of course, my heavenly mother, Mama Mary. Came to realize that my devotions to Padre Pio and Mama Mary led me one day to visiting them in San Giovanni Rotondo, and Lourdes respectively. And in my previous comment on St Joseph, I was also able to visit the Church dedicated for him in Singapore. A recurring devotion to St. Cajetan also came timely when I was looking for a job (I found a new one after couple of months! Praise and thank you, Jesus!) Just as the Saints were faithful to Jesus, so will they be to us when we implore their intercession! Thank God for the Holy Saints!

This is very informative for us a catholic to fight for our beliefs. Thank you father Chris 🙏❤ we praise GOD our Lord Almighty Holy Father our Creator and our God the Son our Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour with God the Holy Spirit one God forever and ever 🙏❤

I love & adore all the saints they had undergone so many trials at times martyrdom they had survived 🙌 ❤️ all these depressing moments in their lives they had the greatest reward with holiness thanks for this awesome video talk, good health father chris 😀 😊 ❤️

You explained why we need the intercession of Saints very well. I look forward to your "Explaining the Faith " series. Thank you very much Rev.Fr.Chris.God be with you and your congregation always Amen ...Bangalore India (21/3/21)

I am so blessed to have the Blessed Mother and Saint Elizabeth as my patron saints.

Prayers to the Saints is especially powerful when there’s no one physically present to help and support us. Sometimes we don’t want to share the issues we need prayers for with brothers and sisters we’re going to see every Mass. Asking the Saints to pray for us is a great gift from God

Thank you for all you do Father Chris Alar ❤🕊✝️🙏🏻God Bless

Thank you Rev Fr Chris Alar for your very beautiful and inspiring talk about the Saints.

Fantastic! Fr. Chris, God is using you powerfully. Thank you.

Father praise be for all your hard work 😓, it's lovely to see a saint happy in his work, boy u gonna b busy in heaven, am sure a LONG time away I will pray for that ;

Thank you Father Chris for your message on the Saints. As a Non-Catholic, I was confused about whether we could only have one patron saint or more than one. I definitely think that Padre Pio is currently my main patron saint, because I have felt his presence numerous times. But I also have felt a connection to St Anthony of Padua and St Faustina. I learned to pray the Rosary with a Catholic family, whose elderly father and husband was on hospice before he died. (I was a CNA). His family invited me to pray the Rosary and also the chaplet of Divine Mercy with them. His wife gave me a booklet on St Anthony and eventually I prayed the chaplet of St.. Anthony for a little while at the time. But even before I bought my St Anthony chaplet, I prayed to him one night lying in my bed. I have flat feet, and my left foot was hurting. But in my mind I could see something or someone stirring (or awakening) (hard to describe). But the pain in my left foot stopped hurting. Amazing. The LORD heard my prayer. I have also felt the presence of St Faustina a few times. I bought a copy of her diary from the Marian Fathers. Just haven't read it yet. Last year I sent you my Angels "poem". Hope you received it. Someone like you is probably overwhelmed by people and letters (because you seem like a good father), so maybe you don't remember. I like you Father Chris Alar, because you are a Teacher Preacher. I have learned so much from you. If I lived near you I would become Catholic, and I would want you to be my father. God bless you Father Chris. Be safe in this winter storm. (From PA).

Padre PIO, San JUANPABLO II, Santa Terecita Del Niño JESUS, St. TERESA DE CALCUTA, SANTA FAUSTINA, SANTA MARIA MADRE DE DIOS 💙 SAN JOSÉ y todos los SANTOS DEL CIELO ora por nosotros amen.🙏

I have always wanted close friends. And I remember how happy I was when I found out that the saints are our closest friends, and that by investing into our friendship with them now we can be even closer to them in heaven. Learning to love Christ and His saints more does not take away from earthly friendships either, but rather helps us to have a greater capacity to love. I am grateful for all the saints, but especially those ones who have taken me under their wing in a special way. May they pray for us now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Please everyone share this talk with others who need to hear this because many deprive themselves spiritually from saints. We are striving for sainthood and look to the saints for help.

Father Chris Alar thank you for your insight and inspiration in details for The Role of the Saints.

Fr Chris that was awesome , I always learn so much from you.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK & research here FATHER! We are now about to reap its benefits! 💙💙💙💞💞💞 SAINT MOTHER MARY PLEASE PRAY FOR US... 💖

I learn so much from you. Thank you Father Chris.

I was lucky enough to have seen several incorruptible saints. Definitely a miracle from God, Saint Bernadette is absolutely amazing. She is so beautiful! You even see her eye brows. I look forward to signing up for a pilgrimage with you. 🙏

JESUS I TRUST IN YOU! Thank you for this gift of life u’ve given me today & everyday of my life. Thank you for answering my request right away in looking for my place to stay. I’m so grateful! Thank you my Lord & my GOD! I LOVE YOU! ❤️ 💜❤️🙏📿🙏📿🙏🕯🕯🕯

Thank you Lord for having us Father Chris for his untiring talks to impart to us what he researched about our religion, thank you so much for that Fr. Chris , praying for your good health 🙏🏻, Lord heal his knee so he will be healed, thank you Lord 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

WoW, FATHER, THIS WHOLE MESSAGE IS INCREASING MY FAITH---EXPONENTIALLY!!!!

Archangel Raphael told Tobias that “the moment his prayer WAS HEARD IN HEAVEN” he began his journey to come to Tobias’ aid. So our prayers are “heard in heaven “.

Wonderful presentation Father Chris! I found your channel a few months ago and it has been so enlightening! God bless you for spreading the Truth and Light of our Lord Jesus Christ. 🙏🏻

I watch ALL of your talks & videos, especially First Friday’s & First Saturday’s. Father Chris you are AMAZING!!! I thank you & I’m grateful for you for those fantastic talks & for teaching/re-teaching us our Catholic faith!!! Thank you for sharing your tremendous knowledge & infectious enthusiasm!!! Your talks began as my hunger & need was insatiable!! God has blessed us with you & I pray God will bless you, all priests at Divine Mercy, & all priests!!

Wonderful talk! Many thanks 🇧🇷

So grateful for your wonderful ministry. Blessings from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thank you father I start listening to you ur amazing thank you for ur knowledge ur helping too much people understand the Bible God bless u

Thank You Again Father Chris. St Rita is also my Saint. I started praying to her for my troubled marriage, my husband an alcoholic has been clean for almost two years. Now I pray for him to convert and also pray for me, to learn to be more loving and accepting of the challenges in my life.

Thank you Father Chris for always taking the time to teach us so much about our Catholic faith. What you do for us is priceless and appreciated more than you know. There are still so much to learn no matter what faith we are. It definitely helps me being a cradle Catholic. God Bless. 🙏📿💕

To touch the hem of Christ is an example of relics. She touched only his hem and he felt power leave him. So the Grace of healing came from Christ thru the hem of his tunic. So the living power of God flows thru us and others such as the saints and relics.

Thank you father Chris alar I learn so much from you, god bless you🙏🙏🙏

THANK YOU 🙏🏼 FATHER CHRIS! THANK YOU FOR GRANTING MY WISH....... it has definitely COME TRUE...... remember I asked you for this wish on my birthday 🎂 December 27!!! On your Sunday Mass!!! Listening now, Saturday March 20, 2021🇺🇸💟🇺🇸 California &! DEAR LORD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!MAGA!❤️

Loved the talk, Father Alar. I always learn so much listening to you.

There is a story about St Francis Xavier that he said that if his body decayed completely, Goa would be destroyed or some great calamity would come to Goa (where his body is kept). So far, every time there's been a natural calamity, other states on the west coast of India have been affected but not my tiny state. But the body has decayed mightily, also a sign of the increase of sin, especially among the Catholics.

Wonderful teaching, Fr. Alar. May God keep you always.🙏

Thank you for this oasis in a world of darkness and secular superficiality

Thank you Father Chris Alar and all MIC's Marians Fathers and Brothers so very much!!! Thuy-Vinh-Bui from Australia.

Fr Cris i always listen.....Philippines here. Salamat!

Thank you so much Fr Chris for deepening my understanding. God bless all your talks and efforts in spreading God’s Divine Mercy! Amen

Truly running late .... thank you Jesus, Holy Spirit, Mother Mary, and our Saints. JESUS WE TRUST IN YOU. AMEN ✝️ 🕊🤍🙏🙏🤍🕊✝️

another terrific seminary class today Father!! Thank you so much. I'm going to try to figure out my patron saint - i won't even bother looking up my name LOL I'm always praying for your Fr. Chris and everyone at the National Shrine. God bless and thank you again for all the time & effort you put into these talks!! They are AND you are a true blessing

This is so helpful for me to fully understand as a convert, and also to be able to explain it to my agnostic and protestant relatives, thank you again Fr. Alar. I have a devotion to Bl Solanus Casey, and wear a 3rd class relic with his photo in a necklace everyday since I discovered him. He has done me some favors regarding my health, TBTG. I love him and hope to meet him in heaven. Oh my goodness, my grandmother is named Rita, and I also wear St. Rita's medal on my scapular!

Thank you Father Chris for your teachings on the Saints today. I really have to search and find my Patron of Saint because I didn't even know anything about this until you mentioned it. I honestly didn't even know there was a Patron of Saint for cancer, as a cancer patient this truly helps in the process of my recovery. Thank you Father for everything you do, all the dedication, love and passion you put into these explanations. You are always in my prayers Father Chris and the National Shrine. God Bless You ♥️🙏🏼💙

Thank you Father Chris for explaining all these teachings about saints. I learned so much from them. God bless you more. Good job. Praise the Lord Jesus 🙏.

Shared on my Facebook page.. thank you so much, Fr Alar for doing this. Having grown up Mormon, drifting away from the church, then coming to God' true church last August, I was not aware I could pray to a Saint for aid. Sharing for those in aid.

Thank you Fr. Alar for another knowledge about our Saints May God bless you and your community of Divine mercy

Thank you Father Chris!...love all your talks you explain so well!❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Fr. Cris for explaining about the Saints why we praying with them very interesting topic. GOD BLESS US.

Thank you Father Chris

Dear Fr Chris, Thank You for the complimentary seminary lessons on ! Saints 🙏🙏 Always full of power packed knowledge that strengthens our faith ! Fr Chris, u r a leader of the Marians and a Saint in the making ! God bless you and Fr Mark for this wonderful teaching ! 😇😇😇

Saludos from TX. What a wonderful teaching. Thank you Fr. Alar,

Inspired by the Holy Spirit,we, together with my special friend of uK humbly come before YOU God Almighty to fulfill our Apostolic promises faithfully and from our grateful hearts thanked you that our dreams and heart's desire will come to pass with your mercies through our unified daily prayers in your name, honor and glory.

"Your greatness in Heaven is how much you reflected the light of Christ on earth." Amen 🙏

Thank you Fr. Chris .🙏🙏🙏

I’ve been watching your videos and learning a ton. My whole life I’ve been a Protestant and always believed that not only Catholics were bad but that they weren’t even Christian! Thank you Fr Alar for teaching me the truth!

Thank you Fr. Chris. You are God sent in our times. Together with all the marian fathers and members of your Church. I always share the blessings of hearing your homilies and talks to my family and friends. Know that we are praying for all of you. As the feast of Divine Mercy nears, the loving words of God's mercy reverberates thru you. May all experience His mercy father. Here in the Phils where we are again being beaten by the adversary thru the covid scare, our churches will again be 🔒 closed. But, i know St. Joseph has something up his sleeves. And like him, i sleep and contemplate how he is going to lead us out of this, just as he protected mama Mary and our Lord when they came to pagan Eygpt. 💪💪💪😇😇😇🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This is all totally incredible love to learn and understand better. God bless you father Chris thank you.

What agift from God you and your teaching is for many of us. TY

I was very weary of saint’s relics too even being a born Catholic then a by choice Catholic, and we never discussed them in catechism either so it was very foreign to me. Thank you very much for going over all this I understand it so much better now and I’m not afraid or uncertain to help others learn anymore. It’s so much fun to learn from you Fr thank you again! God bless always 🙏🏼❤️🕊

Another great talk Father Chris. Thank you.🙏❤️

“ God chooses to come to us through other people and things”. EXACTLY. 👍

All Saints in heaven,pray for us!🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

I have been a catholic non-believer, although i was baptized as a catholic, until i have watched a few of your posted videos in KZfaq, now i an begining to repent my skipticsm as a Christian, i now openly admit that i am a poor sinner and i now understand the role of the Blessed Mary as the Mother of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the importance of all the Saints in the Catholic religion. Pray that God forgive all my skipticsm and doubts about religion in general due to my science agnostic, atheistic inclination in interpreting the bible mainly due to the theory of evolution and the big bang hypothesis. Now i will watch all your posted videos and will begin to practice as a true Catholic Christian and hope to fully reintegrate before i die.

As always thank you and God bless! You have no idea how much you help me.

My favourite Father. You are so God send. Please take my thanks and appreciation for your work.

Thank you Fr Chris I chose Saint Joseph at confirmation and ended up going to Saint Joseph's. I did a novena to him for help for work . He heard and helped me I've been blessed with work for years. Thankyou

I hope and pray this brillant talk reaches the ears and hearts of all those who are confused on this matter especially protestants.
