The Greek word "apostolos," from which we get the word "apostle," means ambassador or someone who is sent out. For His 12 apostles, Jesus picked ordinary people but gave them the grace to do extraordinary things. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains what happened to the apostles. Then hear about American Heritage Girls, an organization helping to form our children in faith and leadership to counter the craziness of our culture.

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 Thursday at 10 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!
