St. Faustina: Her Life and Spirituality - Explaining the Faith 

Tomorrow I am getting baptized at Easter Vigil 2024 and my confirmation Saint is St. Faustina. Jesus, I Trust in You. ❤️

I'm not Catholic. But he talks a lot of sense. St Faustina is fascinating! I've learned that I really need to trust God and not run away from him.

St. Faustina, I'm begging for you help in healing my body and my soul. I've turned my life around and want to spread the word of your divine love for mankind...

Fr. Alar is saving many many souls! Praise be to our Lord Jesus Christ!

It works every time to pray for someone you dislike or they dislike you, an I can tell you it works, I also ask Jesus to soften their hearts.

I pray for everyone that listens to get the miracle they are wishing for❤

Lord please give Fr. Chris the strength to continue his teaching for many to hear.

My father taught me to make devotion of Devine mercy , I was 16 years old , I was not faithful to it, my father was constant with his devotion of the 3 o’clock habit cause it’s so popular in Philippines, until he died his still praying it , now I’m 37 and I stumbled on this and I remembered my dad he for sure enjoying the promise of Jesus on this devotion

I found about Divine Mercy a few years ago, I began to pray the Chaplet and it changed my life spiritually, I am still amazed at this, I'm 65 now, and this prayer brought true conversion to my soul, I am so grateful to God for this gift

It is through St. Faustina who taught me to trust in Gods mercy that I returned to my faith! I now have a deep devotion and pray the Chaplet every single day at 3. I want everyone to know of God’s infinite mercy!

I lost my father a few weeks ago. I blamed myself a lot and had so many regrets. Listening to your lecture today helps me a lot. I now can trust in God and believe in his mercy. Please forgive me Jesus Christ as I have sins and unworthy of your love.

I do love your teaching Father Chris! Your words are inspired by the Holy Spirit! You are so real and show so much love for the ordinary person, like me; struggling to be a good follower of Our Lord Jesus Christ! Thank you for this powerful talk about our Master’s Divine Mercy for us! May God give you many more years to teach us!! ❤️🙏🏼

Oh Lord my God, Jesus Christ , please forgive our sins ,heal our sickness my husband, son and me suffering from cancer. Have my on us . In Jesus name , Amen.

Thank you God our loving Father for giving Fr Chris to us, continue to bless him and use him for your glory 🙏Amen

Divine Mercy and the Marian Fathers (quite long but meaningful) I could not get enough of Divine Mercy Sunday!I really thank God for making me understand and believe in the devotion to Divine Mercy. I am a Filipina and a physician.I was born and raised a Catholic and even studied in Catholic schools from elementary,high school,college and med school but sadly,I do not know how to pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy.The least I know of is the 3 o’ clock prayer that is being flashed every 3 PM at a local television channel.I could never forget the time when our family was going through a difficult time back in 2021(along with a series of unfortunate events with the health of family members,my child suddenly developed anxiety and we had a deliverance done by an exorcist priest)and we had just finished attending Mass at Philippine Centre for St. Pio of Pietrelcina when a nun in blue habit accompanied by a teenage boy approached us and asked if we have any prayer intention for the family.She handed me a paper to write on and an image of the Divine Mercy(the one most popular in the Philippines as Fr. Chris said)and a blue rosary.After that encounter,I started praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and in my son’s anxious moments,I really turned to pray the Chaplet aside from the Holy Rosary.I became interested in spiritual warfare(because as they say,you have to know your enemy)and I came across the image of St. Joseph, Terror of Demons as commissioned by Fr. Don Calloway and featured in his book Consecration to Mary.I didn’t know then about the Marian Fathers.I was browsing through RU-vid and was looking for a video of an exorcist priest but then Fr. Don’s interview popped up and I think it was in EWTN.I was deeply touched by his conversion and like myself,I totally surrendered my son’s case to God and placed him under the maternal care of Our Blessed Mother.After exhausting all efforts(counselors,psychiatrist,developmental pediatrician,therapy and the priest),I know my prayers and full trust in God was the BEST MEDICINE OF ALL!(coming from a physician myself,HE ALONE IS THE SOURCE OF HEALING).I cannot totally recall how I came to the website of divinemercy.org but then I signed as a Marian Helper already.I also came across Fr. Chris Alar’s video on Seal the doorpost with the Divine Mercy image(during the earlier part of the pandemic)and I immediately rummaged through the books I was buying online about Exorcism and the like because there is always a stampita(small image)of Divine Mercy that was being sent to me everytime I bought the books.It was then that I saw that these were printed and given away by the Marian Fathers in the Philippines.I also bought the books of Fr. Don,among them Consecration to St. Joseph and 10 wonders of the Rosary.I was also able to watch his video on the rosary as being a powerful spiritual weapon.In my experience,I can really attest the powerful intercession of Mama Mary against any demonic influence through praying the Holy Rosary.Sometime last year,I was invited by a friend to attend the 33 days to Morning Glory Retreat being facilitated by members of the Militia Immaculata at the parish of Our Lady of Loreto.I was a bit hesitant because I always have a busy schedule,as I now prioritize taking care of my son.I bought the book and was surprised that the author,Fr. Michael Gaitley is also a Marian Father.I consider it such a Divine Providence that all things are connected.I proceeded to do the Consoling the Heart of Jesus Retreat and eventually became one of the facilitators of the retreats.In between,I discovered Fr. Chris Alar’s Explaining The Faith series of talks on RU-vid and I always listen to them on my drives whether short or long and I really learned a lot!It was like an awakening and I could not be happier being a Catholic!I am now actively promoting the devotion to the Divine Mercy and of course,Consecration to Mary and St. Joseph.As before,I tend to shy away from talking about my faith,as there are so many Christian denominations here in our country.I realize that a Catholic should really get to know the faith so they can withstand any adversity.As I heard from one of Fr. Chris’ talks,may be the Holy Spirit has finally came down to inspire and empower me.🙏 As of this writing,I am about to embark on the 33 days to Merciful Love Retreat,another one of Fr. Gaitley’s Consecration,this time to the Divine Mercy. At this time,my son has been doing great in his school as they have been on full face-to-face class already.He has graduated from therapy and did not need psychiatric follow up nor medicines to maintain.He is perfectly the way he was before everything has happened.He is more prayerful and devoted to attend Sunday Masses.I have begun devoting more time for prayers,devotions,daily masses(even online but goes to Church on Sundays)and for family.Our experience has been very tough,I almost gave up,as a mother and as a Christian,but I know God’s Mercy has saved us.I am still a work in progress but I am devoted to helping to save more souls through His Divine Mercy. #DivineMercy #ToJesusThroughMary #MercifulLove

Fr Chris, I'm from Singapore. I enjoy listening in on your talks! Its eye opening and very enriching for me to learn and understand more about my Catholic Faith.

Hello Father! i pray the Divine Mercy everyday, that is our 3o'clock habit especially in the Philippines. God bless and stay safe . Prayers for you💖🙏

the greater a souls misery ... the greater right it has to my mercy. thank you Jesus

Before the pandemic, I frequently passed through Market ST. in San Francisco praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy asking God for the impossible ( stopping the LGBTQ parade ). I was inspired by some friends who are Priests. Market St is where the gay parade run through every year in June. I continue to do so in God's Grace and Mercy. We must pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy in reparation for the sins that cry to heaven for vengence. Thank God for the prayers and sacrifices of St. Faustina and the Marian Priests and Helpers. The rest is history...God cannot be mocked. St. John Paul the Great is a favorite Saint of mine together with St. Anthony de Padua and of course Mary Immaculate and the Glorious St. Joseph. I wish to share the Thought that the Divine Mercy Chaplet is the Crowning Glory of the Holy Rosary. ...for Holy Mother Mary through Her Fiat provided us the Body and Blood of our Lord Whom we offer at Holy Mass and in the Chaplet. The mission of Fatima and Akita and and the Holy Rosary is Divine Mercy. The Angel of Peace told the 3 children at Fatima in 1916 that JESUS and MARY have DESIGNS of MERCY for them. The Blessed Mother at Fatima tells us to pray to Jesus for Mercy ( the decade prayer ) and Jesus responded to pray the Chaplet offering His Sacred Passion to the Eternal Father AMDG SAG JMJ Semper Deo Gratias et Marie

Wow, special mention of my country, the Philippines. Yes Fr. Alar, the devotion to the Divine Mercy is alive and active in my country. May our Good Jesus bless you and all of us.

Thank you so much^^ God and St. Faustina bless Father Chris and the world.

How great is his Divine Mercy 💝 I really needed this word today. Thank you for sharing on youtube, I am new to the Catholic religion, the only way I am learning is by the Lord leading me to the priests on the internet and praying the Rosary. May God Bless you father Chris. 🙏🙏🙏🦘🐨

Very eloquent as our God made it possible, Truth is the reason why he can express this with the help of the Holy Spirit 🙏. Amen Amen Hear this if you have ears and hearts that Love and trust the lord. Trust Him our Lord our Savior and King. God bless us all that belong to the body of Christ the Church..

Thank you again for another beautiful talk and for teaching us about St. Faustina and Jesus Divine Mercy.

Amen🙏Amen🙏Amen🙏what a beautiful Talk from Fr Chris Alar, i love to listen every day, rather than listening useless music. Thank You to all Marian Fathers!You are a blessings to all of us who are seeking Gods love and mercy.Praying for You all!🙏❤️🌹

Jesus I Trust in You

Lord I'm sorry for my sins n miseries I accept the cross and will keep on asking for pardon Lord Jesus Christ Have mercy on me a sinner

AMEN Love is the act of the will, not an emotion🙏❤️⭐️🔥

This is the heart of the Catholic gospel if people new this kind of stuff I don't think they would go out of the Catholic Church thank you May God continue to bless you

Thank you Father Chris for everything you do to spread and enlighten many people who happen to hear your talks...I am one of those people and trying to spread it to my families and friends....May God bless you and all the Marian priests and protect you from all harm....

Terrific sermon. Thank you Fr.Chris!

St. Faustina please pray for my children & grandchildren’s salvation. Please intercede for my son Alejandro (who has Diabetes Type 1) to return to the Church, to repent & ask for GODs Mercy & Love

Thank you so much for this. You have helped me to know Jesus so much more. Helping me to grow more in love with our savior and wanting to trust in his love for me, to trust in his Almighty Power, to entrust my love ones into his care. Jesus is my savior and my security while I am here in this world. With Jesus as my security, I have more joy because I do not live in fear of all the world and all its horrors. I keep my focus on Jesus and thank him for all the love ones he has given me, most of all I thank him for my faith and for choosing me and my love ones. I am so thankful that my love ones also trust in Jesus's love for them. I will use this to encourage them and share this with friends so that they may understand my love and trust for Jesus and hopefully say I want that joy and security from Jesus too. Listening to your teachings encourages me and makes me excited about my life with Jesus here on earth. It also helps to lessen the pain of not physically having my love ones who have passed away here with me because I know they are with Jesus and I will be with them again when Jesus calls me home.

Dear Father Chris, thank you so much for this beautiful talk ,may we ask Saint Faustina's intercession in order to follow Our Blessed Mother and Saint Joseph to know Our Lord more intimately in the Holy Eucharist... That Our Lord's waits for us in this most humble fashion in each Blessed Sacrament in America and the world, it it so amazing that Our Lord once again humbles Himself to be with us... Yet did He not say, I will be with you always even until the end of time...

Thank you and bless you Father Chris for sharing such a beautiful message of love and trust.

Divine Mercy is Needed more than ever

“I want to save them all” (big sigh!) praise to you Lord Jesus! Thank you!

I love the Message and Messanger of Divine Mercy. I have, from my mother's things, an old black & white prayer card with one of the initial versions of the Divine Mercy Chaplet. I pray that original English version every now and then. Jesus, King of Mercy, I trust in You.

Father Aylar is a continual inspiration.

Amazing message, thanks from Australia,

Your right Fr Chris, only God I fear and it’s only Him I trust 100%. Fr Chris your the best ever God gave. Bless you always! Thank you!

Will be praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy tonight. Thank you gain Fr. Chris.

Yikes ! I see it now. My co workers are such an annoyance and sometimes very difficult. I will continue to pray for them because God has a full circle plan. Love the explanation and thank you for these weekly talks

I am working on bringing a true devotion to Divine Mercy to our parish St Mother Theresa of Calcutta Parish. We celebrate First Friday but very few ever attend. They need to learn about the graces that can be Received when they floodgates open on Divine Mercy Sunday

Thank you Fr. Chris. I live 2 hours from Stockbridge (in RI) and look forward to making a pilgrimage to the Shrine. Honestly, I resent the restrictions imposed by the state and pray The Church will have the courage and conviction to save immortal souls (fear sin, not death). That said, I accept this persecution as a penance and purification. May Our Lord and Our Lady protect and guide you. Jim Palombo

Saint Faustina pray for me and my children

Thank you Rf. Chris for all you do. You are truly blessed by the Lord Jesus. You are one of his apostles. I follow your Divine Mercy Mass and Novena every day. I pray it for the Holy Souls, especially my husband Delfin s soul. I pray for sinners the sick and the dying. For my children who do not believe. I pray for their poor souls! Had mass said for them too. I trust in the Lord he will save them and the souls too. St Faustina is so lucky to see him to be so close to him. I wish I could be like her
