Chris Alar, MIC, as he reveals how an extraordinary young priest brought Christianity to Ireland, and in doing so, inspired a movement that spread the Catholic faith throughout Europe.

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 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!

Latin Mass vs. Novus Ordo

In the Catholic Church, there are two primary forms of the Roman Rite Liturgy: the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), codified after the Council of Trent in 1570, and the Novus Ordo Mass, promulgated in 1969 after the Second Vatican Council. The latter is the most common form, while the former is often the subject of confusion and controversy. Father Chris Alar, MIC, compares and contrasts the main points of both forms to help you better understand the beauty of each.
