Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains two critically important Marian apparitions that you haven't heard about. Gietrzwald (the only approved apparition in Poland) and Pontmain (Our Lady of Hope) in France will give you a much better understanding of Mary's role in God's Kingdom.

On the Feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, reflects on a decisive moment in his own vocation and on the gift the Church receives through reason rightly ordered to faith. Saint Thomas shows us that clarity about God’s will is not opposed to intellect but illuminated by it. As the Catechism teaches, “God can be known with certainty from created reality by the light of human reason” (“Catechism of the Catholic Church” 31).

Join us as Fr. Chris Alar explains how Advent is a penitential season like Lent, as we prepare ourselves for the three comings of Christ: the Incarnation, the Second Coming, and the coming of Jesus into our hearts through the Eucharist.
