The Presentation of Mary

Click for More

The Presentation of Mary (feast day: Nov. 21) is an ancient feast commemorating Our Lady’s dedication to God in the temple when she was a child. It has become an integral part of our Church’s pious tradition. Father Chris Alar, MIC, traces its background, noting that it reflects the spiritual journey of every believer, inviting us to offer ourselves fully to God. Then hear the story of the Lisieux House in Seattle, Washington, a place for women to go for a variety of reasons, such as getting closer to the Lord or even discerning a vocation.

Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!

Proving God Exists without Using the Bible or Faith

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).
