    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?

    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.

    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 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.

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.

    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.

    So I prayed about abstinence and this is what I understand during adoration today, that we are to help each other grow in holiness.
    And so, it is more charitable to remind our bros and sis of the obligation to abstain from meat on Fridays OR atleast encourage them to emulate/adopt the sacrifice or devotion.
    Also, it is charitable for the host to respect the covenant of their guest with God. The host helps their bro or sis in their struggle to holiness.
    For your discernment father 🙏
    May God bless and guide us ❤

    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 ❤
