Oh thank do much father Cris Alar i am a filipina 64 years old
Watching here from Saudi Arabia
How healing your teachings are i like it
God Bless us all Christian Catholics
Ty for watching and God bless you
You’ll like this one! It was a desperate time in my life and marriage. We hadn’t been to Mass in years. Our son had been destroyed by a false priest who had molested him. The recent memory of seeing our daughter die haunted me. My husband and I constantly argued. Worst of all, I didn’t know anyone who understood. I wanted to die.
A friend commented one day I did know someone who understood. Someone who had not only lost her son, but saw him tortured and killed. It was Mary, of course. That reminder hit me like a ton of bricks. I suddenly realized we had been wrong to leave the Church.
Attending any church had been very traumatic for me. I had left several sobbing and didn’t feel I could attend any alone.
I did have a running conversation with God, but it wasn’t enough. I avoided God when I needed him most. I realized I needed to connect through the Holy Mother. When you’re hurting, it’s easier to go to your mother than your father.
I started praying the Rosary and the Divine Mercy prayer. This led to a desire to learn more about the Faith, such as through Divine Mercy and Fr. Ripperger videos.
My husband started watching the videos with me and we started talking more instead of arguing.
When I learned how versatile the Rosary can be, I began pleading the Blood of Jesus before each decade, praying for my daughter’s soul and asking for my husband and son to be consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The next week, my husband started praying a daily Rosary, too. A couple days after that, he came home with new Rosaries, scapulars and medals. The following week he went to morning confession and Mass. He took me later that day as well.
Having learned from Catholic YT videos that his position as husband/father gave him spiritual authority over our family, he increased his Rosary praying. I not only overheard him praying to be a better man, husband, and father, I heard him praying for me, our daughter’s soul, asking God to help us stop arguing, and pleading the Blood of Jesus for our son. I can’t adequately express how much that meant to me.
We started going to weekly Mass together. He started attending daily Masses and working on consecration to Jesus through Mary. The closer we got to God in prayer, the less we argued.
Connecting to Jesus through Mary myself gave me a renewed desire to live and serve God. More than that, focusing on the suffering of Jesus and his mother in the Rosary healed my broken spirit (as it says in the Bible, “and with his stripes we are healed” Isaiah 53:5). I realized one day that I felt happy despite problems in the world, and no longer felt broken.
Having achieved so much so fast, I became impatient to see changes in our son. My husband took the lead saying we needed to be patient because God would answer in his own time and way. Considering the prayer warrior he had become, I knew it must be true.
I do mean prayer warrior because his Rosaries had evolved. I heard him interjecting a series of prayers between decades, creating a perfect blending of recited prayers, his own heartfelt words and meditation. He started daily Bible reading and study. He began blessing our son every time he visited and talking to him about God’s love. He got our son to wear a scapular and carry a Rosary with him everywhere.
Our son started asking religious questions soon after, asking to pray with us sometimes and even to consider returning to confession and Mass.
Our family, which had been broken and failing, was fixed by Our Lady’s Rosary. The fast transformation has been nothing less than incredible. What else can I say except prayer works!
Wow G... that is quite a story. God bless you and praise Him for helping your husband, son and family. You are proof of the power of prayer! Know you in our prayers as well. Thank you for sharing.
G Dasan what an amazing testimony. I’m so happy for you and your family God is indeed real I love mama Mary so much she’s a woman worth being fixated on... may your life and the lives of your family get better and better. Peace and blessings to you all.
That’s a beautiful story. It warms my heart to read it. Encourages me as a father of two sons that have been secularized that it will happen eventually but in His time. God bless you and I’m happy you have found peace.
Wow. What a beautiful conversion for your whole family, praise God.
Have you seen Fr. Ripperger's talk on Our Mother of Fair Love? Life-changing. 💗🙏🏻

Dear Fr Chris; you are a very special priest endowed with the gift of teaching. I don't want to lose you to any of the illnesses that you said you suffer from. When I offer my fasting to God for priests on Wednesday and Friday I will now expand the offering from priests in general to you specifically. God bless you Fr Chris. I love you and what you do. From a hermit in Toronto Canada.
Thank you and God bless you
This is so true. Father Chris is my “go to Priest.” I have learned so much from him. He is the best teacher! ❤
I also, Father Chris, am learning so much from you. Thank you so very much!

Thank you Fr,Chris for your wondeful, inspiring, & motivational talks ,I've learned too much,now I'm 81,still learning ...God is good, we need prayers,He is everything in our life...God bless you for all these...God bless us always ❤🎉x❤
Prayer is talking with God, giving praise and glory to God. Telling God our wants, needs and desires. Asking forgiveness from God when we fail, and thanking Him for all his blessings.
BEST SPIRITUAL "CATHOLIC" LIFE LESSON to LISTEN LEARN & LIVE DAILY !! Thank you Fr. Chris for instilling our PRAYER as so VITAL that it IS A SOUL-MATTER OF LIFE OR DEATH!! I am beyond grateful for such Teachings to rise us to be stronger Catholics Of Christ!!! Amen!!
I listen to this Lecture, repeatedly, and STILL yearn & need to listen to it AGAIN!!!
I am awoken for prayer every morning. Sometime 2-3 am sometimes 4:30 regardless I roll out of bed and pray. I am literally called to prayer. I have heard my name called. Heard the blessed mother say good morning or wake to the smell of flowers. It is my favorite time of day and I loose myself in prayer in meditation and writing sometimes for 3-4 hours at a time. Prayer is like food for my spirit I can not get enough🙏
You are so bless Jenn Jo
Wow. I woke up at 2:30am and finished some technical support work and tried to finish watching this video. Here i am, reading the comments at 3:10am.
You are so blessed!
I have had experience of smelling roses right after receiving the Eucharist a couple of times. The priest told me that I am blessed because only one in 6000 Catholics can experience this.
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🛐🛐🛐
I get the same signals. Am even woken up with knocks on my bedroom door! I think my Guardian Angel nudges me though I can spend hours with Masses and other devotions. Becomes addictive as I dont want to fall asleep to keep praying or reading the Bible. I cant stay awake during the day as a result. But I love being close to Mary archangels Michael, Raphael, Gabriel. Immaculate Heart of Mary I consecrate my son and family to your heart. Pls keep them protected. Amen
Amazing

I was raised in a Samoan strict Catholic family. Evening family devotions are a must. We were taught by our parents to always fall to our knees every time we pray. So glad for parents paving a way and trusting Gods process ❤
Thank You Lord for this Beautiful time to Listen fr Chris ALAR He Really enjoyed studying so he can Teach Us Blessings to Him AMEN 🙏🙏🙏💕

Thank you father i wake up early today this mornibg not knowing you have a talk about How To Pray.i listened till the end .some answers my question in my heart .Thanks JESUS .AMEN
When I think about when the seed was planted for me to come into the church it was a Filipino Lady when I was a child. My mom was protestant and I didn't understand the relationship with Mary that Catholics had. She told me, "We believe that Mary is the mother of Jesus through and through." Meaning that she wasn't less his mother after he died. It was so profound yet simple enough for a child to understand. A lot of others nourished that seed, but when I trace it back, it was that conversation the the love of the Blessed Virgin was planted in me and even in the most sinful times or my life, I always felt her there trying to show me the way back to christ. My mom is Catholic now too. I'm half Filipino myself, but my dad wasn't the best Catholic, but the Filipinos still got me through the church doors. ;)
@@Happy-ft8ie thank you so much for taking the time to say that. I've been a little lost professionally, but have a degree in writing. I started a project about the lack of fathers in our society and how it spiritually shuts many of us down to the idea of a father's love. And how God in his infinite wisdom, humility, and love, gave us Mama Mary to lead our a society like ours back to him. I've been asking for guidance and you're the second person to say something like this in the last few days. I told Mama to please hit me over the head with whatever I should do because I'm very dense and wouldn't get subtle messages. I'm tired of trying to do what I want with my life and messing up. I told Mama if she'd show me, I'd like to submit to whatever God wants. I consecrated myself to her and St. Joseph on May 13th. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I'm going to keep rolling with this project and see what happens!
@@Happy-ft8ie I will certainly keep you in prayer. I understand with the father part. I have friends who are great people, but just don't have the same life experience and can't understand why Catholics feel we need Mary. I listen to a lot of Christian religious, even non-Catholics sometimes and it just breaks my heart when I hear the very misplaced views they have about Mama. I didn't quite understand what a lot of reparation of the first five Saturdays was about until I realized that some of my friends even felt that I'm under "demonic" influence in my devotion to Mama. It's like they've actively been taught this animosity towards her and it's heartbreaking. We live in a world that desperately needs Mama. I'm very grateful for Fr. Chris's "Explaining the Faith". I've played/sent some his talks and Fr. Calloway's talks to friends and I think they're pretty accessible to non-Catholics and definitely a good refresher to me.
I am unable to say the rosary live because of my work schedule, but it is nice to come after work and be able to watch it and pray it on UA-cam. Thank you Father’s!
A special thanks to Holy spirit for healing a father of 3 plus his wife of Brain cancer praise the Lord.Amen

Thank you Father Chris
Father after listening to your teachings, I started praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and the Rosary. I and my family are in financial need. We have got financial commitments to meet. Unpaid loans and ventured into financial dangers. Facing mental torture due to this. Please pray for us. I believe Jesus will bring me out of this.
"Do not be afraid." Many claim that this verse appears in the Bible 365 times. I haven't checked that for a fact yet but I don't think it's necessary. This promise from our Lord has sustained me and my family for at least 10 years now. We've gone through a lot of crises, too, mostly financial and clinging to God's divine mercy and providence has become our sole source of peace. Of course, we do what is necessary and leave everything else in God's hands. The secret to peace and a stress-free life is trusting Him completely and doing His will. My trust in Him has been tested once before in 2011 and I failed. I asked for forgiveness for my lack of faith and trust in Him and begged for the grace of increased faith. From then on, every time I face challenges, I pray for guidance and help and just do whatever I can do with my capabilities and resources and leave everything else to God. He never fails. I also once questioned God why challenges and difficulties keep coming even though I've been trying my best to live according to His will and the answer came to me through Mother Angelica, in one of the re-runs of her show. I learned that these difficulties are meant to increase and strenghten my faith in God as I am always asking for that grace. Now, nothing troubles me and I sleep in peace because I know that God is always watching over me and loves me and His mercy always overflows. May God bless you and grant you peace of mind and heart. Do not be afraid...
Increase your devotion to Jesus and Mary. Pray the holy rosary and the divine mercy chaplet everyday.
Isn’t it the greatest thing? Never heard of it as a child.

"St.Teresa of Jesus - Spending time alone with the One who loves us, alone." Learning to begin mental prayer is the most difficult work,(detachment, humility love) and not forgetting the temptations by the devil to break us, distraction to stop us praying.. so many!

Thank you so much Fr Chris! I saw this many times but something made me move on. I had the desire to affirm and know well Carmelite Mental prayer and that was the reason I passed your talk. I pray the Chaplet and Rosary daily and have the desire to teach others how to do Carmelite mental prayer. Sometimes before, I wondered how I can be a Marian Helper here in my area. We have the Rosary Group, many Divine Mercy Apostolates/Groups, Third Order of Mary, Little Sisters of the Poor/Jeanne Jugan Helpers, children of Fatima Marian Helpers, Divine Will Apostolate and Secular Order of Discalced Carmelites of which I am a member. Two desires I have which I daily place before Jesus through Mary are: to teach Carmelite Mental Prayer and to be a MARIAN HELPER by helping others to love Mary thru the Rosary. Listening to the talk was like"yea, I was inspired to listen to Fr Chris for my answer was there. Yes! The answer definitely but I needed a written transcript where I could translate to the local language of the majority. There are many inspirational talks but always in English. Fr Chris your talk is the response to my desire but in English which limits the scope of beneficiaries. My target is the majority not selected English speaking/understanding few hence the interest to translate. I leave this with you Fr Chris. To everyone, please remember me, my desires and inspirations in your "S" of "ACTS." With a grateful heart, may God continue to bless you Fr Chris, and all Marian Helpers at the Shrine.

I am a “born again” Christian and am seeking to strengthen my faith and spirit and to know and grow in the grace of the Heavenly Father in ways that he want us to. In this segment Father Chris has answered many of my questions/ doubts about why we need to attend church. My spirit has been weak even though I very much want to go. Now I know that I must first start to pray for strength and I must make an effort and time for God. Thank you very much Father Chris for that push.
Wow, God bless you and thank you for sharing. May God bless you on your faith journey and please feel free to contact me if you need any help. I would be happy to try to show you an answer any questions for you. God bless
@@DivineMercy_Official Father Chris if I were to be residing in the town where your ministry is presiding over I would attend your church without a doubt even though I am still seeking the direction as to which denomination I should subscribe to. I am praying that by God’s grace I will find it some time. I truly wish that all Christians faiths can be united in one some day. I find your teachings very inspiring and purposeful and engaging.
