Turn to the Example of a Sinful and Scandalous Saint!
When we feel like there is no hope for our lost loved ones and no amount of prayers seem to work, Fr. Chris Alar gives us an inspiring lesson and example in St. Monica and St. Augustine.
Hear Fr. Chris Alar's important message concerning his weekly Explaining the Faith talks, and First Saturday events.
Catholicism teaches that we are only saved through God’s grace, but we must cooperate with that grace by living as “another Christ.” That means doing good – and a great way is through the Corporal Works of Mercy. Father Chris Alar, MIC, reveals the seven works of mercy in Scripture and shows how we can perform these in our daily lives. Then be inspired by the example of the National Catholic Partnership on Disability and its outreach to those in need.
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 EST, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am EST. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina's 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!
Fr. Allen Alexander, MIC, explains the feast that celebrates the presentation of Our Lord in the temple, Candlemas, and used to conclude the Christmas season prior to 1962.
