The 12 Apostles

Click for More

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.

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 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!

We often hear that not only did the Catholic Church not condemn slavery, but it actually supported it. Hear Fr. Chris Alar explain what the Church has actually said against this act of injustice.
Jesus said we must “pray always without becoming weary” (Lk 18:1). But how can we truly pray without ceasing? The answer lies in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass — the most perfect and continuous prayer on earth. At every moment of every day, somewhere in the world, the Mass is being offered. Humanity never ceases to pray because the Church never ceases to worship.
