Saint Anthony of Padua is one of the most popular saints in the Catholic Church. Father Chris Alar, MIC, shares his story and some of the many incredible miracles worked by this holy man. Then hear the story about the Good Samaritan Network, which, in the spirit of St. Anthony, is known for serving and feeding the poor. 

Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, reminds us of a sobering truth: death is not the end — it’s the moment the Master comes for us. In today’s readings, we hear both the cause and the cure for death. Through one man, sin entered the world, and through sin, death. But through Christ, the new Adam, we are given the remedy: to be ready, vigilant, and in a state of grace when He comes.

What makes the Miraculous Medal one of only three liturgically approved sacramentals in the whole Church? Fr. Chris Alar explains the promises and importance of this devotion given to St. Catherine Laboure. Also, the Marian apparition at Siluva, Lithuania, near the home of St. Faustina.
