Yes he is very blessed to Preach God's word for us and all that are lost. There's always hope with Mercy & Love. Love & Prayer are the key to God's Hart.
I have a strong calling to our church. I feel so lost because I don't know what it is yet. I keep praying for God to reveal my path. Every video I watch of yours father, I feel like I get closer and closer to Jesus. Thank you 🙏❤️💙🙏
Hi Father Chris it's so good to be a Marion. I would like to say that God is helping me and my Family. I thank God I awake everyday because there's so much Evil out there. He has saved me so many times. Amen I'm so Grateful.
Thank you for your prayers for me and my Godson. Although I am watching this after he is buried and this was recorded I don't know how long ago, I believe I can count your dedication for victims as prayers for us. We unfortunately qualify. Thank you Father Chris.
Your a great educator.. God is so, pleased with you. I Love hearing you everyday. I can't go to sleep if I don't listen to you before I go to bed. God bless you always 🙏
Fr Chris, How mystical and wondrous is the priesthood!I am in awe of the grandeur of God's Love and Mercy.Honor and praise to Jesus who loves us so dearly!!! Amen. 🌷🌷🌷🌺🌺🌺🌺🙏🙏🙏
God bless you Fr. Chris for all that you do in Jesus name. May you live a long healthy life, ever growing in your faith and love for the Blessed Mother and Jesus-and to God be glory and the honor forever and ever.
Father Chris, I am becoming addicted to your teachings. They are so clear and so easy to inderstand, especially when you mention the chapters and numbered verses in the bible. Thank you so much for taking the time to prepare them for us.
You are an amazing Priest Father Christ! I pray for more Priests like you in the future. God bless you and all those who helped make this teaching available to all Catholics around the whole world.❤❤❤❤ 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Jesus. For coming and teaching us thru your prist. Oh my Jesus protec your prist Mary Mother keep your prist under your mantel please we need our prist Mass, cofection Communion, Jesus I Belive I trust in You.
Honestly, father Chris I sincerely thank God for your life. You don't know how happy I am to listen to your teachings. My prayer for you is that the Lord who has called you will continue to be with you.❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@DivineMercy_Official up Thanks for all your lectures!They are all priceless! The holy Spirit is within you fr. Chris!Continue your very good work!God bless you Father Chris!
I don't think I even took a breath during the explanation of the vestments, from the collar covering to the chasuble and how each item related to the Passion of Christ. I also loved the explanation of how each aspect of Catholicism (confession, mass...) relates to the life, death and resurrection of Christ. Powerful! I thank God every day for leading me to the Catholic Church.
@@DivineMercy_Official my dad, may he rest in peace, has called me that since I was very little. My siblings only call me that. I was absolutely horrified the first time I googled that snookie from "Jersey Shore" after someone heard my mom, may she rest in peace, use the name and asked me if I was named for that girl. I too am italian, but my parents would have warmed my backside if I had acted like that, no matter how old I was! I miss them dearly! On a serious note, thank you for addressing the scandal and crisis in the Church, hiding information is how we got here in the first place. I know you wouldn't know it by watching the evening news, other religious denominations have just as many, or more issues. I know that they are not really Christians, but listening to stories of the abuse of children, male and female, who were made to go weekly to see an elder and confess any/every sexual thought or action and the session taking a very inappropriate turn, is heartbreaking. Anyway... Love the Saturday talks, wait all week for them! God bless you all!
Thankyou God for the grace of Divine Mercy. Fr Chris I truely believe what you said about priests talking about the Divine Mercy. I had become disillusioned with the Catholic Church due to all of the abuse and had walked away for 4 years then in 2020 I saw your Divine Mercy upload on RU-vid on Divine Mercy Sunday and pow! It hit me like tonne of love and forgiveness all in one. And here Iam more in love with Our Lord and more devout then ever, hungry to learn everything I can about our faith. Thankyou for you lessons, may God give you the grace please continue and may the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ protect you always. May we all pray a Hail Mary for Fr Chris and his fellow priests.
Father, Chris, you and Fr. Don Calloway, give me so much hope and happiness for the present and the future of the priesthood. ! I am so grateful for your work, and I send out through email links to many of your videos to help my parish learn more about the faith.
Thank you so much, Father, and God bless you for being a great Shepherd and for helping to bring Divine Mercy to your parish! Please keep in touch and let us know if there's anything that we can do to help, such as sending you some free material or whatever we can do to help. We need priests like you! God bless you,
GOD BLESS. My cousin who's a Deacon told me you have to priest shop in this day and age. I'm sad to say but it's true. I grew up in the church in the early 1960s before Vatican II took hold. My family are Slavic. They were the ones who kissed a priests' hands even after he was no longer a "new priest". I long for those days when a priest would walk by and you made the sign of the cross to bless yourself and him. Consecrated hands always got respect from us as children. Our parents taught us to be respectful. And thank God I've never known a priest who abused anyone. Now having said all that I can honestly say I listen to your videos often and the reason I do goes back to what my cousin the Deacon said. Find a priest who has it. The Holy Spirit. And stick with him. You've got it Father. And may you never lose it. Viva Cristeros!
God bless DE and thank you for joining us. Yes, I am Slavic too (Croatian and Czech). I love my Polish brothers and am grateful that Divine Mercy came to us from God through Poland. God bless you.
Thank you, Father Chris. I am so willing to listen to you. I do pray for he who hurt me. I forgive him, I can’t forget. I can verbatim say the things said to me and about me at Mass at his homily, no less! But, I pray to this day for the health of his spirit and soul. He has retired young.
Thank you redcandy and God bless you. Yes, God drug me out of the world kicking and screaming but now I cannot image doing anything different than this incredible Divine Mercy ministry.... in big part to all of you! :) God bless....
Thank you Father Chris Alar, and may God bless all priests. I thank the Lord I have found this channel and have learned so much . Praying for all priests !
Thank you so much Father Chris for this talk on Explaining the Faith, I learned so much. May God always Bless You and keep you safe. We need you in all of our lives.
@@DivineMercy_Official Father Chris, I have been here right along I just didn't post my name I just hit the like button. I would not miss you or Father Kaz at Mass.
Terrific talk Father!! It's always such a great education for me. Thank you for all the work you put into your talks on Explaining the Faith series. I'm also so very thankful to Brother Mark and the other tech people. I often can't catch these live, tho i prefer to, so having them available after is such a blessing to me. God Bless all of you at the National Shrine of Divine Mercy. Always in my prayers are priests and anyone in or seeking religious vocations. You are a true warrior for our faith!! Thank you for answering the call.
God bless our Marian Father's, and all priests ! I think that all of those who committed these grave impurities knew they were doing when they committed these act. All good priests have suffered because of this, it's so wrong, and victims yes suffer. As a Marian supporter I can assure you I have received so many graces by benefitting from all spiritual works! Pray for priests, thank God for priests who lay their lives down for us! Without them we wouldn't have confession Holy communion and all the Sacraments! In Medjugorje Our Lady says to the faithful pray for your Shepherds ! Priests are the bridge to to triumph of Marys immaculate heart Pray for these, love our priests, many whom today are living saints.
Thank you Father Chris. This is a great lesson. I learned much today. May God bless you and all good priests. I can’t wait for your next lesson. My prayers are with you. 🙏✝️🌺🇦🇺
Prayer for priests are important and aways needed.I believe as I pray for family friends neighbour's and so on, priests can be attacked in many ways for they are so much closer to God and teaching the word God.Satan hates it all.So I pray for all priests to be safe always.Thank you.I appreciate you dear father 👨❤🙏
I never ever hate Jesus and the priesthood. I only feel repugnant to the bad priests and now I am praying for the Catholic Church Father Alas, you are the sainty priest am so proud of. God bless the wonderful priest like you Fr.
What a dear, sincere, joyfull priest. Indeed, Americans are a rich nation. ...and I thought that only we were unique. 😉 Warm greetings from Croatia. ❤️
Thank You for your explanations and the truths you have shared in this video...I know as I was gradually learning of these ‘bad priests’ and the homosexuality that goes on it has sickened me in ways I no know words to explain...I don’t listen to the media...I’m grateful for your words... God Bless You🙏🌹
I claimed total healing physically, mentally, spiritually Lord Jesus. You are my healer and refuge. Mama Mary cover me with the most Precious Blood of your son Jesus.
Fr. Alar, thank you for this wonderful discussion. Indeed, we need strong and faithful shepherds like yourself to lead the Church towards God. In a book that I am reading recently, Jesus recently made a call to his priests: "I am about to carry out the plan for the renewal of priesthood, that for so long I have held within My Heart. These days of shame and of darkness that have come upon My priests, in so many countries, are about to be changed into days of glory and of light. I am about to sanctify my priests by a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon them. They will be set ablaze with the divine fire of charity, and their zeal will know no bounds. They will assemble around my Immaculate Mother, who will instruct them, and by her all-powerful intercession, will obtain for them all the charisma necessary to prepare the world - - this sleeping world -- for my return in glory. I tell you this not to alarm you or frighten anyone, but to give you cause for an immense hope, and for pure spiritual joy. The renewal of My priests, will be the beginning of the renewal of My Church... I ask you to undertake this work of adoration, because it is the necessary preparation that will follow... " From "In Sine Jesu", message in 2nd of March 2010. So let us come to our Lord in adoration, and pray for our priests. We all have a vital part in this. God bless you, Fr. Alar. And I hope that anyone reading this finds a message of hope!
The last video was like a USMC recruiting video, very engaging and motivational. I like that Catholicism is like the Marine Corps; hardest to be a member of but we'll worth the journey.
I admire Fr Alta I listen to you every night. But I think the numbers regrading the bad priests are much higher💒. I thank God for your Devine Mercy..🙏 And I keep your health in my prayers Fr Cris🙏 From Aussie-Land 💒
We need more than ever faithful,courageous and genuine priest like you father.Thank you for your ministry.May the Virgin Mary 🙏 protect you and the others priest.Glory be to God!!
Wow, amazing fr. Chris thanks so..much again for sharing this excellent/impt. topic about priesthood, I do appreciate/learn about your vocation, it's not easy, for being priests, you are the bridge/instruments for us to become closer to God/ embrace our catholic faith thru your endless service/sacraments/teachings needed for the salvation of our souls, no one is perfect and for this reason prayers is needed. Rest assured Marians fathers and Bros.my prayers for all of you and all the faithful priest of the whole world. God be with you and bless you always.
Fr. Chris. Thanks so much for wonderful teaching. (I always enjoy & learn a lot from your Saturday talks. Also spread your teachings to my friends. I pray for priests everyday.
I thought it was impossible to follow Christ through and through because we are so prone to our weaknesses and sinfulness but after praying the Rosary for years I found out that it was not that hard with our Blessed Mother Mary leading us. Praying the Holy Rosary every day puts temptations away . Now I realize what all the Saints said about the Holy Rosary, it truly is a perfect weapon against the evil spirits. If one Rosary prayed is not enough to fight the evil spirits, pray more Rosaries during the day. If you pray like Father PIO did, 63 Rosaries in one day, you truly will see the Face of our Blessed Mother and OUR God, Jesus Christ. How did Father Pio did it, he probably prayed the Rosary every minute so he had no time to entertain other things that will lead His mind to go astray and that is how he fought the evil spirits that torment him day and night. It truly is hard to make it to heaven as Jesus said but God gave us weapons and instruments to make it to heaven if we make the effort to do so.
Thank you Father Chris. Lord, hear our prayers for all our priests, without the priests there’s no Holy Eucharist and other Holy Sacraments of the catholic church
Thank you so much for providing this interesting and useful information, Fr Chris. God Bless you and all that are called to the priesthood! I am grateful and humbled by your dedication and service.
How much I could say thank you for all of your teaching. They opened me eyes to a deepen wonderful world of Christianity and priesthood. I am so much grateful to discover this RU-vid Channel and found you and all the wonderful priests, brothers of MIC. Ran Takenaga
Father it is very true. We need priests because they are the mediator between God and man. Heaven comes down at the words of consecration during the holy mass. He is above the angels.
Dear Fr Chris, Thank You for another incredible teaching this week ! Appreciate the interesting animation and the video clips 😀 It's funny that you mentioned your Dad said you wouldn't make it as a Priest. Hah...Look what The Lord has done 😉 ! I thank Our Father for you everyday !! You bet I pray for you and Fr Katz, the Marian Fathers & Brothers, and our Pope Francis, in the name of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit ! Amen ! 😇
Definitely these priests scandals made me wonder out of the church for so long. However, I know it is not all priests. As fr. Chad Ripperger said "no man behaviors should shake your faith"
I saw Fr John Hollowell in the last video you played . Let's continue to remember him in prayer, rosaries and divine chaplet; I pray for his physical and spiritual strength and healing. 🙏 There were several gentlemen in ties; which one was brother Mark? Thank you as always Brother Mark. Thanks you as always for the talk Fr Chris.Indeed,snares, traps and an attempt to confuse from the beginning. And THE LORD GOD COMMANDED MAN , (........“Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat,)........ for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” - (Genesis 2:16-17 NKJV) Now the SERPENT WAS MORE CUNNING THAN ANY BEAST OF THE FIELD which the Lord God had made. And HE SAID TO THE WOMAN, “HAS GOD INDEED SAID ( ......‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’) ? ......” Then the serpent said to the woman, “ ... "You will NOT surely die.".( Genesis 3:1, 4 NKJV) And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “THIS IS MY BELOVED SON , in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:17 NKJV Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “IF YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD , command that these stones become bread.” Matthew 4:3 NKJV The serpent is but a LIAR and MURDERER from the beginning. ( John 8:44 (+) 1 John 2: 4,22) May we, through the grace , strength and wisdom received, all persist and remain in the Body until the very end. Love and prayers 🙏
Thanks so much for this talk! I had an interesting dream which I think might be about the old testament priesthood and present traditions on Oct 13th, 2020. In it, my deceased grandfather gave me what I later found out to be an Ephod, which was the garment that Jewish High Priests wore in the old testament. It was a divination tool to communicate with God. Anyways, the colors that God had them make the Ephods: scarlett, blue, purple, woven with some strands of gold...I prayed for a year about it. In adoration I think it was revealed to me that the Ephods were that color because that's the colors of a human heart if you look at it post or pre-mortem. The gold strands might represent the golden arrow of reparation. So, through offering reparations to the Sacred Heart we can know the heart of God. I believe the Ephod was a precursor to the Eucharist, Sacred Heart Devotion, and Divine Mercy. I prayed a rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet everyday for my grandfather when he was dying of cancer. Maybe he was telling me how important it was. The Ephod I saw in my dream was a glowing reddish purple with thin gold plaid. It pulsated like it was beating. The words my grandfather communicated to me through my mind was "communication religious garment." I found out that reddish purple is the color of blood that's deoxygenated, like a person who's been asphyxiated might have. Maybe it was just a dream, but it felt so real. I've actually met several deceased family members/friends in dreams--a few had died of suicide. I always have masses said for them and say rosaries and the Divine chaplet for them. I think my grandfather was letting me know I had accidentally stumbled on something and should keep doing it. He was Protestant but never hated the Blessed Virgin. I entrusted him to her when he was dying. I like to think she's adopted him since he seems to be allowed to give me messages from time to time and is so much more luminous in my dreams than any of my other family members. He died on Easter 2002. And get this, the dream I had another kind of crazy religous dream with him on May 13th, 2020. They might just be dreams, but those little coincidences had me praying a lot. Just thought I'd mention it since you're a priest devoted to spreading Divine Mercy and wrote about it concerning suicide. I think you Marians are onto something ;). God Bless.
Hello Fr Chris, thanks so much for this video. I have a spiritual son who is in the seminary and your words and experiences really encourage me to pray for him more fervently. On another note, l really like the catechism video about the priests. Where can l find this video? Sorry l know this was posted two years ago.
JMJ+ LORD JESUS, I give YOU thanks for the HOLY Mass, but we need more Priests. YOU provide for our needs and they come into being through YOUR Holy Will. I hope and pray that call to Service comes soon for more men, and that YOU protect the Priests that we have from the influences of the evil one and from terrorism. Holy Mother, Mary, I beg Your help as well. These, Your Spiritual Sons, need Your intercession with JESUS for none of us walk alone. We walk with You and JESUS CHRIST lest we fall.......amen
It is the most terrible tragedy of the entire Church, all over the world, by all of the Christians; that all of the parishioners, don't say Mass for themselves and families and clergy. I'm not ordained by human hands, but trust me in this, I'm Very Very Very Ordained. I taught two protestants how to say Mass in minutes. I told them that I would prove to them that this works, and at 12 PM tomorrow, they would feel a buzzing sensation going through them. "That will be God going through them as I say Mass for them at 12PM," I told them. Exact at 11:55 AM the next day, I felt a buzzing sensation going through my body, like someone was saying Mass for me. They were just believing protestants and unordained, uneducated, and believers in Jesus, Our Lord and Savior. That is all, One male and One female. About 12 years ago, I said Mass for myself, and asked God to give me the knowledge of the future. About 9 years ago, I looked right into the future to see Obama win his election by 281 electoral college votes, "three days," before the voting took place. I immediately spread it all over Twitter and sent tweets off to Nancy Pelosi, MSNBC News, Kelly O'Donnell, Obama about seeing the final vote of 281; and the tweets are still on Twitter under Gary James Shields, on that time line spoken about above. TRUST ME ON THIS ONE. You could have all of the Parishes, all over the planet, praying for you both to live another hundred years with age regressing body's. You could have some praying for you to have Angels with you to talk to, Healing Powers, the Ability to Walk in the Water, To be bullet proof, to be invisible whenever your need to be, to be able to levitate and fly, A N Y T H I N G ! ! ! 500,000,000 Masses all said on the same day for you two; and you would have snapped your fingers and things would have been done for you. There is still time. Time is of the Essence ! ! ! DON'T IGNORE ME ! I Speak from Experience, Verily. Ask me what to ask God to give to you and I will instantly pray and say Mass for you to receive it. Reply to me in this comment section, and I will do it for you. Faith is, replying to this message and telling me what you would want. The rest is up to me and God. Those who call upon the Name of the Lord, shall not be disappointed. ..............................................................
Father Chris, when you mentioned that the celebrant is not an entertainer, I knew I had to share this bad joke. Son: Why do we call the priests father? Dad: Because they tell Dad jokes. Love ya Father Chris. Please keep sharing.
Yes let us pray for our pope, our bishops, cardinals and priests. They are very good targets of the evil spirits because priests bring to humanity what Jesus promised us all, His Holy sacraments. The Little flower, St Therese said so, we need fervently to pray for our priests. The evil spirits love to play with their emotions because that is how the evil spirits can destroy our Church, the Bride of Christ.
Divine Mercy and Mary, Amen! She loves her sons! I'd love to hear you teach on the role of Nuns and Sisters. I'm currently discerning what I believe is a call to religious life, but I'm a new convert from evangelicalism. What is a Sister ontologically?
