Prayers to our mother Mary for her intercession for your healing. Prayers also that you have wise and compassionate doctors and nurses may God bless you
Heavenly Father, giver of life and health: Comfort and relieve your sick servant, and give your power of healing to those who minister to his needs, that he may be strengthened in his weakness and have confidence in your loving care; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
My Prayers were to moving there as well. As a widow and Mom of 2 Son's and daughter in laws, 5 grandchildren. It's not so easy for me.. I Pray for Jesus let me move. His Will not my Will. I Jesus and Mary Pray for me . Amen Praying for everyone here Listening .
Unbelievable!! Thank you so much for such wonderful knowledge. I am a Christian orthodox, but I truly love listening to this priest.!! Thank you. dear father 🙌☀️❤️
Father Chris, I have to pause this video momentarily to share something with you: I came home from Mass and after prayers, to make lunch and grabbed my iPad thinking, so what shall I watch while I chop veggies-true crime, psychology, news…or hmmm, I know I have been in church for a couple of hours but maybe something spiritual? I felt like watching something mindless but gentle shame sent me to reconsider and I found your recent video and as soon as I heard your smiling voice and opening prayer I sighed: “Yess, this is home.” Never am I ever disappointed in your instruction. Thank you.
My husband, a cradle protestant, has been quietly watching as I find my way back to the Catholic Church. We have some serious "knots" in our family and I told him about Fr Chris's presentation of Our Lady Undoer of knots and he agreed to watch it with me, and to pray this Novena together. This might be the beginning of his own path to the Church. Thank you Father Chris for all your wonderful teachings, you seem to have been born for a time such as this. I am watching and learning so much from all of your past videos. I was a cradle Catholic who attended Catholic school but eventually turned away. Many decades later I became an Evangelical Protestant but, after seeing so much deception there, I am now returning to my roots. Yes, deception can be found in any church, including Catholic, but the true roots of the Church will not deceive, which are the basis of your teachings and others at Divine Mercy. Fr. I'm also grateful for Fr. Bount, Fr. Ripperger, and other conservative laity and clergy whose conservative voices are being heard as well. During all these years away from Catholicism I held fast to my private devotion to the Blessed Mother. Your teachings have helped bring me back to my Catholic faith, the original faith I loved so much before Vatican 2. Until then I thought I wanted to become a nun (as other young Catholic girls might have during this time) but, in my early teens, when the Church was stripped of what seemed like everything sacred, I began to question that if so much of the beloved Church tradition could be stripped away in the blink of an eye, then was any of it real? Did the Pope or the nuns and priests I grew up around, ever believe any of it? How do you throw away something you supposedly believed in? My parish fully, and immediately, embraced the new rules. It was a confusing time. The statues of our saints were removed from our church. Medals, personal statues and wall hangings and other representations of our devotions were no longer for sale and we were instructed we could no longer pray to the saints for help. The music and the litergy changed overnight. My mother, who sang in the choir, lost interest in the Church after the choir was disbanded (it's sad that this was all that held her to the Church) but his was the beginning of the end of our family attending church together. Everyone in my family eventually away from the Church. I seem to be the only one, still living, returning to it. However, I am not saying Vatican 2 was responsible for the dark path I eventually went down. Ultimately that's on me. I was a teen so most of this was due to rebellion and lack of a spiritual anchor in a very disfunctional family, which is probably true for most dysfunctional families. A suggestion for a teaching might be how to come back to the Church. Where do we start? Confession seems obvious, but do we need to anything else before we can receive Communion? And what can we do if we failed to baptize our children in the Church who are now grown, having never been given any spiritual roots, as I had been given myself, to help lead them to the Trinity and the most Blessed Mother at some point in their lives? They don't even know the Hail Mary prayer. I saw your teaching on how to bring your loved ones back to the Church, but what if they were never taught about the Church to begin? And how can we repent of such an omission of denying our children even their most basic instructions or prayers in the faith? I am personally responsible for failing my children in the most disgraceful, and profound, way. 😢 I can receive God's forgiveness but how do we forgive ourselves?
Wow thank you and God bless you for sharing that. I read your whole message and was deeply moved. Please let me know if there's anything we can do for you and your family other than the best of all which is prayer. If there is any other way we can help please let me know but know that I am keeping you in prayer. God bless you
It’s the fathers responsibility to lead the way to Heaven so don’t put such a burden on yourself …besides doing the 33 Days to Morning Glory Consecration by Fr Michael Gaitley ( also a Marian priest) our dear Blessed Mother has our family in Her motherly care💕
I'm a convert, and the closest parish looks like a stripped place to, I am also without a car, but, years ago when I went to a Mass, it was beautiful, and that was part of the beauty, truth and goodness that is supposed to be there. ❤❤❤ ❤❤ ❤❤
Fr. Chris, my mom passed away a year and a half. She cried so much for my brother who has been addicted to drugs and alcohol for the last 26 years. I pray everyday for him and your words that Jesus will not take for granted her tears filled my heart with hope. Thank you so much!
My condolences for your mother's passing. You, your mom's soul, and your brother shall be in my daily Rosaries. May God bless surround, embrace, and bless you.
There is a saying, sons of tears are never lost, Lord, l trust in Your Divine mercy for the restoration , their h😢ealing of those in my family members, amen.
Thank you father Chris for your teaching I found the purpose of my Christian life now I know more about the Catholic faith and practices which I never know before. God bless you father and protect you from any harm and danger.
Fr. Chris, how great is your topic today touching the very core of our being : Most Important Virtues To Get to Heaven. More or less, we know these virtues in our catechism but wasn’t explain so brilliantly as to conscientiously live this in our daily lives. We understand well now the importance to practice them and to grow in the virtues where we are yet so weak. With a childlike attitude, we can humbly approach Mother Mary to help us in our spiritual journey that we’re not alone to get to Jesus. Our Catholic Church is flooded with so many abundant treasures and that we must cooperate and say like St. Therese: “I want them all.” Thank you, Fr. Chris, for sharing the overflowing knowledge you have in your seminary class. We must remind ourselves all the time to change in the way we think, speak and act by living the important virtues for the salvation of our souls for eternity.
Thank you, Fr. Chris, for a very interesting & informative talk with some new information for me. God bless, strengthen & protect you in your ministry. God bless the Marians.
Thanks Fr Chris for today’s teaching. Praise The Lord. My children are not always doing the right things but I have surrendered them to God and love them dearly and also let them know the good and the bad things they do. Jesus I trust in You. Amen. God bless us always .
Fr Chris you are as my former St Adelaide pastor says, a “very gifted priest “. From giving us the roadmap to heaven on one slide to today’s talk on the virtues, I am truly grateful to have your guidance on my journey to heaven. In just short of 90 minutes, you summed up 160+ Explaining the Faith lessons to give us the formula to lead a virtuous life INCREDIBLE!!! I appreciate that you are now taking us from knowing our faith to learning how to live it and that makes all the difference . Thank you, thank you I hope you have a safe drive to Rosa Mystica (and that you don’t break any speed limits). prayers for you and your family and for all the participants in your weekend retreat I wish I could be there.
Fr Alar you chuckle and get struck by the same things I do! We are are so blessed to have the delight in the truths God shows us weare blessed! I pray for you and the rest of you at the Shrine of Divine Mercy
Father Chris, I am commenting on your talk about the levels of heaven five months ago. I am 72 years old and I have always remembered the teachings of the Sisters in the Order of St. Francis - that Jesus told us that His Father's house has many rooms and that our heaven, if we are worthy, will be a home based on our acts on earth. Thank you for your dissertation, so many have never heard this and that each person's heaven is based on the graces we have been given in our lives and the acts of love we have performed.
Hi father chris please pray for me & my husband who's not well these days praying for more virtues in the world 🙏 ❤️ god bless you father love your talks thanks somuch ❤❤❤❤😅😅
God bless you Father Alar. I love all of your videos... I learn so much, every time I watch your teachings. My heartfelt gratitude and appreciation, 🙏 Please would you pray for us, Father Alar? Etienne de Lange and me, Lea Sandham. We are newbie Catholic converts... Both Baptized and Confirmed 8 Apr 2023, at Saint Charles in South Africa, both with intact vows of chastity since February 2022. We both struggle to 'Love Thy Neighbor' as we still share a home.
Thank you Fr. Chris. You have been missed. I pray that you come back every week. You were to me the light that brought me back to Faith during the dark years of Covid. You are air in the forest with your words of truth. God made a greater good from all this evil. I pray for you and all priests to hold fast to the Faith
Thank you , Fr . CHRIS ALAR for taking us back to the seminary class for building up our spiritual life . Mother Mary , full of grace , help us to practice these virtues and point away from our disposition to sin . As you said , Fr. CHRIS , virtues lead us to have not only a good life on earth but also in heaven . Thank you once again , Fr. CHRIS , for all your hard efforts , you put in to minister to us .
Thank you Father Chris! Thank you Lord for Patrick Jerald Flores Pecson, passing his NCLEX exam. Praying for Erin Flores Pecson for today, in JESUS name we pray! AMEN!
Please pray for me Father Chris, I was in the hospital for a week with Covid, and at home now, but still sick. My priest came to the hospital and anointed me,etc. I am a faithful prayer of Divine Mercy, but lately I have been too sick to Pray the Chaplet, etc., but will pray to continue getting better. I am 67 years old.
@@Carolem494 prayers for your healing. Perhaps, if you are still weak, you can watch a recording of the Chaplet and Masses and do what you can actively
What causes him to be "cancelled" was putting the corpse of a dead baby on an altar during Mass, which is ridiculously blasphemous and degrading to the poor baby.
Jesus I Trust in You 🙏 please pray for my family to come back to the Catholic Church and participate in the Sacraments of the Holy Church - healing of the family tree🙏 thank you Fr Chris and the team for all your hard work 🙏🕊️
Thank you, Fr Chris Alar, , I do depend on you and the true teaching you provide, with all the things that are out there, Divine Mercy, is where I am going to spend my time learning and promoting. I have been overwhelmed with the amount of videos and I need to get things down to a daily basis routine. Sr Faustina, pray for us. And I will be going straight to your site,as too many use you for click bait. ❤❤❤
Fr. Chris, I hope that you will do a talk one day on how we can better carry our crosses! I want to be a saint, but I am so far from one. Pregnant with my 4th child, I find that I often can’t even stop myself from grumbling or complaining about being tired, etc. How do we REJOICE in the crosses of our lives? Thank you, father!
@@alexandriahall8925 May God bless and protect you and my prayers for you as you bring your fourth child into the world. I’m sure your days are long and exhausting and I pray for you and your safety delivery.
I'm only 10 minutes into this and my mind is already blown. That distinction between being a good person on the natural level, or the supernatural level, is something to really think about and dwell on.
🕎Thank you Fr Chris Thank you Heavenly Almighty Father for your kindness and love Mother Mary pray for healings and protection Jesus I trust in you.♥️🌹🕊️
Thank you Father Chris! This is one of the most important messages every shepherd should be giving today to overcome the spiritual battle we are fighting within ourselves and the world around us ! You are saving souls!
Thank you very Fr Chris Alar. This talk makes sense and giving meaning to the graces, all our practices in the churches, and to the virtues needed in our lives be natural and supernatural.
Thank you so much Father Chris. I have been truly blessed by the Holy Trinity since I found this channel. I say the Rosario and the 3 pm passion of Jesus Christ everyday now. I do go to church but once I started saying prayers during the week here , I have realized that just Sunday is not enough. My doing my best to be a better Christian and Catholic. I’m also a lector at church and first time I did the reading , I almost cried at the altar because I was so humbled to be asked if I wanted to be a lector . I was overwhelmed with gratitude 🙏 May God bless u Father and I love ur Saturday classes. U are so right about everything u just said.
@@soniatorres5227 God bless you on your journey. My experience has been similar to yours, including being a lector and you are right it is very humbling. I didn’t find this channel during Covid but shortly after, and it has been the biggest blessing in my life
@@alwaysmisskaryn we are blessed that God lead us here . I found this channel about 2 months ago and I love this channel and the Fathers . I wish I had found it sooner but it’s was God’s will when and I am so grateful 🙏
Thank you so much father Chris, your explanation of the virtues. Honestly I didn’t understand I feel so informed now God bless you and all your priest.🙏⛪️
Thank you so, so much Father Chris Alar for these talks. God bless you and keep you safe at all times. Yes, I do have a good friend, he is homosexual, he is Catholic and married another man... like you said he is good in an earthly level, he is a registered nurse and he would help you in whatever he can. He is my friend since 1999. I do have a daughter who has told me that she believes in God but she never goes to church. She is a good daughter, she has given me 3 precious grandsons. Please, pray my my daughter and friend full conversion. God bless you all. God help us all to continue our journey to heaven. Deo gratias.
Great talk, Fr. Chris! Not only do we need to know our faith, but also how to live our faith. There is so little consideration of the virtues in today's world (we just rationalize all the vices!). God bless!
This was an awesome talk Fr. Chris. It will be one that I'll probably listen to a couple of more times because my brain doesn't digest all of that at once. When it comes to practicing the virtue of charity, I've managed for the last two weeks to pray the St. Gertrude prayer 100 times each day. For over a year I've only been praying this prayer 50 times a day when praying the Chaplet of St. Gertrude. How I've managed to pray another 50 is by adding one to each of the Hail Mary beads when I pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. I've kept you and your parents as well as your sister in my prayers while sitting inside my parish before the Saturday Vigil Mass. God bless you Fr. Chris now and always.
Father Chris, This talk was so amazing. This talk identified myself. I feel alone. I do have a hard time to go to confession because I think I’m complying with my responsibilities. I am hard on myself . I take care of my mom at age 87 years old. I work full time and I come home take care of my mom. She is my second job. Whatever calls to do. I’m there to take her to orange park hospital or Baptist hospital in Fleming Island. This talk deserves a second part to it. I still haven’t seen the chosen part 1,2,3 but I did watch some 4 . This talk is amazing. I wish I could meet you and mostly likely I would start crying as soon as I see you. I feel you understand me. Thank you father. 😢
Cool timing! I'm reading The Art of Living by Edward Sri. It illustrates how "the virtues are the basic skills we need to give the best of ourselves to God and the people in our lives." (From the inside jacket)
An important definition of charity is the love of God. Love must have an object and natural objects are fine but cannot be sustained. It's the love of God that keeps you sin free. You don't want to hurt and disappoint someone you love.
These explaining the faith talks are my FAVORITE! And the past month, every talk has been on something I’ve been studying or answers I’ve needed desperately from God. Thank you thank you and God bless you Father Chris! 🙏🏼
Father Chris!! You started out with “I am taking you back to seminary class,and I was glued to your passionate talk to the VERY END!!! And Truly, Truly, Truly I have learned so very much from your teaching! Thank you so very very very much!!!GOD BLESS YOU!!!
Thank you Fr Chris for your various inspirational talks. For your explanation of the cardinal virtues etc. I love listening to you as you helped me to know my Catholic faith better and more. Please pray for all my family members who have lost their faith and some even have become an atheist. Thank you again Fr Chris for everything. Amen
True love is not merely a feeling but a choice; to become a habit and eventually a virtue. A virtue is when your thoughts turn to words, your words turn to actions, your actions turn to habits, and your habits develop your character...
Praise and thanks be to God for inspiring you and giving you the talent to teach our Catholic Faith online Fr. Chris. Catholic Theology is difficult and complex that must be seriously studied. Though one of the Church's pastoral duties unfortunately, she could not fully deliver due to a lack of manpower to teach? Fortunately, there are Priests and Catechists like you who are willing to teach. Way to go Fr. Chris. And thank you sooo much for all your efforts and dedication.
Cradle Catholic too. Left after 30 years because there was no progress in knowing God. A friend got saved and born again and God started working in him and I wanted that too, which prompted me to find out what it's all about. You see, Jesus said that unless one is born again they will not even SEE the kingdom of God. John 3:3 [3]Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. I was unable to even know or perceive spiritual things, but after being born again, the scripture opened up to me. The HS came in. Strong's Number - G1492 Greek: εἴδω Transliteration: eidō Pronunciation: i'-do Definition: A primary verb; used only in certain past tenses the others being borrowed from the equivalent G3700 and G3708; properly to see (literally or figuratively); by implication (in the perfect only) to know : - be aware behold X can (+ not tell) consider (have) known (-ledge) look (on) perceive see be sure tell understand wist wot. Compare G3700 . KJV Usage: know (281x), cannot tell (with G3756) (8x), know how (7x), wist (6x), misc (19x), see (314x), behold (17x), look (5x), perceive (5x), vr see (3x), vr know (1x). All I did was repent, turn to God and agree with Him that I am bankrupt (according to righteousness) and I am trusting His work alone. This made all the difference. It is placing hope in Christ and relying on Him for all things. Maybe this doesn't make sense yet because it's not religious, but it really is a miracle that God does. May God help your search.
May our Dear Lord bless you each day Father Chris. ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏 whem i pray for priests YOU ARE ON TOP OF MY LIST I LOVE LISTENING TO.YOUR TALKS ON YOU TUBE OVER AND OVER AGAIN ❤🙏🙏🙏
Thank you very much Fr Chris for the very high level of quality talks with your formidable teaching. It's always a great delight to be further informed about our faith to instill confidence in us so that we may defend our faith and evangelise by the grace of God. I hadn't realised that one of my favourite Saints, like myself, was a fan of the very wise Lao Tse/Tzu/Laozi with one of my favourite ever quotes about character and destiny ❤ I wish you, your family and all at The Shrine and your other Marian Communities and families a most blessed, peaceful and joyful weekend. May God, The Holy Family and all of Heaven protect and shower you all with an abundance of the very greatest blessings and most amazingly special graces always 🙏🕊️⛪
Thank you Fr. Alar. May you continue to do this as you helped me in strengthening my faith. I hope many people will do as well. I always like to share your videos, it serves as our light. May God blesses and protect you everyday.
I just figured out the nazarite vow of num ^ was to show repentance for accidentally provoking a placebo effect that resulted in the death of a woman from num 5. all I know is I love ya Chris idk why I dont hear from you in person but thank you and I trust your judgement more than my ego. you're the best thing going for us. salaam

You have been missed. I pray that you come back every week. You were to me the light that brought me back to Faith during the dark years of Covid. You are air in the forest with your words of truth. God made a greater good from all this evil. I pray for you and all priests to hold fast to the Faith

Please pray for me Father Chris, I was in the hospital for a week with Covid, and at home now, but still sick. My priest came to the hospital and anointed me,etc. I am a faithful prayer of Divine Mercy, but lately I have been too sick to Pray the Chaplet, etc., but will pray to continue getting better. I am 67 years old.
@@Carolem494 prayers for your healing. Perhaps, if you are still weak, you can watch a recording of the Chaplet and Masses and do what you can actively
God bless you. I hope you get well soon.

Fr Frank Pavone is so brave. Speaking out for the unborn caused himself to be cancelled by pope francis.
Yes. But he needed to be obedient to his bishop and the pope and, sadly, wasn’t.
What causes him to be "cancelled" was putting the corpse of a dead baby on an altar during Mass, which is ridiculously blasphemous and degrading to the poor baby.
Thank you Father Chris Alar another blessed beautiful teaching in living our faith God bless you and all our blessed and holy priests 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
Jesus I Trust in You 🙏 please pray for my family to come back to the Catholic Church and participate in the Sacraments of the Holy Church - healing of the family tree🙏 thank you Fr Chris and the team for all your hard work 🙏🕊️

Phenomenal
Thank you, Fr Chris Alar, , I do depend on you and the true teaching you provide, with all the things that are out there, Divine Mercy, is where I am going to spend my time learning and promoting. I have been overwhelmed with the amount of videos and I need to get things down to a daily basis routine. Sr Faustina, pray for us. And I will be going straight to your site,as too many use you for click bait. ❤❤❤
Thank you for watching with us and God bless you
I cant love as God loves so I pray and ask God for the grace to recieve His Agape ❤️ Love ❤
You are right , We can never outdo the love that God has for us. We ask him for his grace.
@@alwaysmisskaryn i ask Mary for help. I cant love as good as when i join my heart to Mary and love with Her Immaculate heart
Fr. Chris, I hope that you will do a talk one day on how we can better carry our crosses! I want to be a saint, but I am so far from one. Pregnant with my 4th child, I find that I often can’t even stop myself from grumbling or complaining about being tired, etc. How do we REJOICE in the crosses of our lives? Thank you, father!
@@alexandriahall8925 May God bless and protect you and my prayers for you as you bring your fourth child into the world. I’m sure your days are long and exhausting and I pray for you and your safety delivery.
I'm only 10 minutes into this and my mind is already blown. That distinction between being a good person on the natural level, or the supernatural level, is something to really think about and dwell on.
Yes, ty
🕎Thank you Fr Chris Thank you Heavenly Almighty Father for your kindness and love Mother Mary pray for healings and protection Jesus I trust in you.♥️🌹🕊️
Thank you Father Chris! This is one of the most important messages every shepherd should be giving today to overcome the spiritual battle we are fighting within ourselves and the world around us ! You are saving souls!
I ❤ your videos.. I learn so much. I had 12 years of Catholic school...I learn more from you. ❤
Thank you for joining us and God bless you
Thank you for this! The whole World needs this,🙏
Thank you very Fr Chris Alar. This talk makes sense and giving meaning to the graces, all our practices in the churches, and to the virtues needed in our lives be natural and supernatural.
Thank you so much Father Chris. I have been truly blessed by the Holy Trinity since I found this channel. I say the Rosario and the 3 pm passion of Jesus Christ everyday now. I do go to church but once I started saying prayers during the week here , I have realized that just Sunday is not enough. My doing my best to be a better Christian and Catholic. I’m also a lector at church and first time I did the reading , I almost cried at the altar because I was so humbled to be asked if I wanted to be a lector . I was overwhelmed with gratitude 🙏 May God bless u Father and I love ur Saturday classes. U are so right about everything u just said.
@@soniatorres5227 God bless you on your journey. My experience has been similar to yours, including being a lector and you are right it is very humbling. I didn’t find this channel during Covid but shortly after, and it has been the biggest blessing in my life
@@alwaysmisskaryn we are blessed that God lead us here . I found this channel about 2 months ago and I love this channel and the Fathers . I wish I had found it sooner but it’s was God’s will when and I am so grateful 🙏
I didn’t need patience Fr Chris!! Talk was so enlightening. God bless you. Next on to Fr Kolbe ❤
Thank you Fr Chris, from South Africa 🙏❤️
Thank you so much father Chris, your explanation of the virtues. Honestly I didn’t understand I feel so informed now God bless you and all your priest.🙏⛪️

Thank you so, so much Father Chris Alar for these talks. God bless you and keep you safe at all times. Yes, I do have a good friend, he is homosexual, he is Catholic and married another man... like you said he is good in an earthly level, he is a registered nurse and he would help you in whatever he can. He is my friend since 1999. I do have a daughter who has told me that she believes in God but she never goes to church. She is a good daughter, she has given me 3 precious grandsons. Please, pray my my daughter and friend full conversion. God bless you all. God help us all to continue our journey to heaven. Deo gratias.
Great talk, Fr. Chris! Not only do we need to know our faith, but also how to live our faith. There is so little consideration of the virtues in today's world (we just rationalize all the vices!). God bless!
True
Thank you Father Chris, Hope all is well and ends well, all is well ❤️🙏
Thank you FR. Chris!!!!!. For this talk. Here in California we LOVE THESE TEACHINGS. WE don't hear at church.....
Thank you and God Bless and protect you and all your family and friends always! Your talks are so informative and inspiring ♥️Christine
loved the talked of Fr. Chris. Thank you
This was an awesome talk Fr. Chris. It will be one that I'll probably listen to a couple of more times because my brain doesn't digest all of that at once. When it comes to practicing the virtue of charity, I've managed for the last two weeks to pray the St. Gertrude prayer 100 times each day. For over a year I've only been praying this prayer 50 times a day when praying the Chaplet of St. Gertrude. How I've managed to pray another 50 is by adding one to each of the Hail Mary beads when I pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. I've kept you and your parents as well as your sister in my prayers while sitting inside my parish before the Saturday Vigil Mass. God bless you Fr. Chris now and always.
Father Chris, This talk was so amazing. This talk identified myself. I feel alone. I do have a hard time to go to confession because I think I’m complying with my responsibilities. I am hard on myself . I take care of my mom at age 87 years old. I work full time and I come home take care of my mom. She is my second job. Whatever calls to do. I’m there to take her to orange park hospital or Baptist hospital in Fleming Island. This talk deserves a second part to it. I still haven’t seen the chosen part 1,2,3 but I did watch some 4 .
This talk is amazing. I wish I could meet you and mostly likely I would start crying as soon as I see you. I feel you understand me. Thank you father. 😢
Thank you so much fr Chris for your work teaching the catholic faith. Really it touch my heart to change myself to love God and do his will.
Thanks for sharing
Cool timing! I'm reading The Art of Living by Edward Sri. It illustrates how "the virtues are the basic skills we need to give the best of ourselves to God and the people in our lives." (From the inside jacket)
Good morning pray for the whole world Amen 🙏 🙌 ✨️ 😌 ❤️
Thank you, Fr Alar, for the great joy of this teaching, from your home state! (near Grand Rapids) Godspeed and many blessings to you and the Marians!

Please pray that our work with children succeeds. And for the quick healing of the flu making its rounds 😢
@@jternus84 God bless you as you work with precious children.
@@jternus84 may God bless you working with children is an honor that I had for all of my career.
God bless you Fr. Chris! Thank you for another great talk!
Thank you, Fr.Chris. This is superb. God choose you, fathers.
An important definition of charity is the love of God. Love must have an object and natural objects are fine but cannot be sustained. It's the love of God that keeps you sin free. You don't want to hurt and disappoint someone you love.
These explaining the faith talks are my FAVORITE! And the past month, every talk has been on something I’ve been studying or answers I’ve needed desperately from God. Thank you thank you and God bless you Father Chris! 🙏🏼
Thank you for watching with us and God bless you
God bless Fr. Chris and the whole world 🙏🙏🙏💞💞💞

FATHER CHRIS ALAR ...MY PROFOUND THANKS FOR EXPLAINING THIS ONE AND TO.UNDERSTAND THE VIRTUES TO GET TO.HEAVEN..🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you Fr Chris for sharing, I’d never thought I would have this kind of opportunity to learn about this, God is good❤🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, Father Chris. Magnificent teachings, God bless you! Greetings from Brazil.
God bless you and everyone there
True love is not merely a feeling but a choice; to become a habit and eventually a virtue.
A virtue is when your thoughts turn to words, your words turn to actions, your actions turn to habits, and your habits develop your character...
Praise and thanks be to God for inspiring you and giving you the talent to teach our Catholic Faith online Fr. Chris. Catholic Theology is difficult and complex that must be seriously studied. Though one of the Church's pastoral duties unfortunately, she could not fully deliver due to a lack of manpower to teach? Fortunately, there are Priests and Catechists like you who are willing to teach. Way to go Fr. Chris. And thank you sooo much for all your efforts and dedication.
Thank you for watching with us and God bless you
Cradle Catholic too. Left after 30 years because there was no progress in knowing God. A friend got saved and born again and God started working in him and I wanted that too, which prompted me to find out what it's all about. You see, Jesus said that unless one is born again they will not even SEE the kingdom of God.
John 3:3
[3]Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
I was unable to even know or perceive spiritual things, but after being born again, the scripture opened up to me. The HS came in.
Strong's Number - G1492
Greek: εἴδω
Transliteration: eidō
Pronunciation: i'-do
Definition: A primary verb; used only in certain past tenses the others being borrowed from the equivalent G3700 and G3708; properly to see (literally or figuratively); by implication (in the perfect only) to know : - be aware behold X can (+ not tell) consider (have) known (-ledge) look (on) perceive see be sure tell understand wist wot. Compare G3700 .
KJV Usage: know (281x), cannot tell (with G3756) (8x), know how (7x), wist (6x), misc (19x), see (314x), behold (17x), look (5x), perceive (5x), vr see (3x), vr know (1x).
All I did was repent, turn to God and agree with Him that I am bankrupt (according to righteousness) and I am trusting His work alone.
This made all the difference. It is placing hope in Christ and relying on Him for all things. Maybe this doesn't make sense yet because it's not religious, but it really is a miracle that God does. May God help your search.
May our Dear Lord bless you each day Father Chris. ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏 whem i pray for priests YOU ARE ON TOP OF MY LIST
I LOVE LISTENING TO.YOUR TALKS ON YOU TUBE OVER AND OVER AGAIN ❤🙏🙏🙏
Heaven is our goal! ❤ Thank you Fr. Chris! Praying for you, please pray for my family!
Your talk was the most informative and helpful I have ever heard
Father Chris, may God bless you.
Am African , but I never hear you mention the Uganda martyrs who died for their faith.
God bless you and know I am happy to hear your words. Very helpful!
I need to listen again ❤
This was a wonderful talk. 🙏 Thank you Brother
Amen. ,🙏 Thank you Fr. Chris for explaining out virtue ❤
Thank you very much Fr Chris for the very high level of quality talks with your formidable teaching.
It's always a great delight to be further informed about our faith to instill confidence in us so that we may defend our faith and evangelise by the grace of God.
I hadn't realised that one of my favourite Saints, like myself, was a fan of the very wise Lao Tse/Tzu/Laozi with one of my favourite ever quotes about character and destiny ❤
I wish you, your family and all at The Shrine and your other Marian Communities and families a most blessed, peaceful and joyful weekend.
May God, The Holy Family and all of Heaven protect and shower you all with an abundance of the very greatest blessings and most amazingly special graces always 🙏🕊️⛪
Thank you Fr. Alar. May you continue to do this as you helped me in strengthening my faith. I hope many people will do as well. I always like to share your videos, it serves as our light. May God blesses and protect you everyday.
I just figured out the nazarite vow of num ^ was to show repentance for accidentally provoking a placebo effect that resulted in the death of a woman from num 5. all I know is I love ya Chris idk why I dont hear from you in person but thank you and I trust your judgement more than my ego. you're the best thing going for us. salaam
