The Life of St. Faustina Kowalska, the Secretary and Apostle of Divine Mercy

Join us at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy for a special talk with Fr. Chris Alar in honor of the Feast of St. Faustina Kowalska, the Secretary and Apostle of Divine Mercy. St. Faustina was entrusted by Christ with the mission of proclaiming His message of Divine Mercy to the world, a mission that continues to transform lives through her Diary, through prayer, and through the Sacraments. On this special day, Fr. Chris will guide us deeper into the life, message, and spirituality of St. Faustina, helping us see how her trust in Jesus remains a path of hope and holiness for our times. This talk is a beautiful opportunity to celebrate St. Faustina's legacy and to rediscover the message of Divine Mercy at its very source. Come and encounter the love of Christ through the witness of the saint who gave her life to make His mercy known.

Join Fr. Chris Alar, MIC as he discusses the Sacrament of Holy Orders. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus says, "...call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in Heaven."
