God wants us all to be saints but how could that be possible? Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, lets us know what it takes to become a saint (it might be easier than you think!) and then shares the story of Fr. Bryce Lungren, the Cowboy Priest of Wyoming, who has his own unique way of helping his congregation to become holy.

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.

It is an obligation of the Church on certain days to Fast and Abstain from meat, and to pray and do almsgiving every day. Fr. Chris Alar explains why do we do penances and what is the meaning within and outside of Lent.
