Love ❤Father Chris alar he saved my life through Christ if it wasn't for him I would of took my life

[loril]

Father Chris, as I am watching this, I am crying because I have given up on my Faith. I have been so depressed because of the attitude of my family. They have forgotten me and have abandoned me. But I forgive them because they don't know what they have. I still love them. I just want them to come closer to God. I will try my very best to know and prepare for the coming of Jesus. Thank you because you opened my heart again to love and be ready for the coming of Jesus. God bless you.

I have watched this at each Advent season since it was first live streamed. It's never boring. I always find something new or refreshing to me. Maybe because I didn't catch on the last time or it didn't moved me as much before as it does now.

As usual, I’m learning things I’ve never known as a life long Catholic. Thank you Fr Chris, you are so appreciated!

Thank you, Father's Chris. I'm learning so much from your teachings. I'm a returning Catholic who is hungry for the word of God.

See Fr. Chris, you have such an impact on so many people that a lady would drive six hours to see you. I've been praying the rosary everyday now. The last time I prayed the rosary before I started watching your videos was probably when I was 8 years old and I'm 31yo. I believe with your videos are going to and have saved so many souls including my own. I just want to thank you ❤️
I will keep you and your mother in my prayers.
God bless 🙏❤️💙🙏

Beautiful talk, Fr. Chris. God drew me to Divine Mercy and the Marians for my healing. And yes, you personally, your life and teaching have been a great inspiration to me in a very difficult time. May God bless you & strengthen you in your ministry. Praying for your family.

Fr. Chris every teaching is so profound an I get so lighter and receive more grace to soldier on. Continue enlightening us in catechism. You are changing the world

Father Alar, forever I am indebted to you for saving my soul.

I was a “cafeteria, lukewarm Catholic” only choosing what was most convenient for me. Due to the fact too, that I didn’t know anything about my Faith.

Those beautiful Sisters of my childhood did their very best, but instead of saying my Rosary, I hung it on my wall. (I loathe to admit that!)

I loved Jesus & Mary my entire life, but never gave of myself, because I didn’t know how.

I’ve changed a lot since your first episode, included in my resume now, is that I am a co-catechist teaching First Communion. Had I not followed you, I would’ve never sacrificed my time to do it. Not to mention, I wouldn’t know nothing in order to even teach!

Now I know the immensity of sacrifices we are required to make, all because of you. To who much is given, much is expected- you said that! Know your Faith so that you can love your Faith- also you Father Alar!

To the negative comments: I wish that I could tell them, do you not understand the enormity of the sacrifices these Fathers make- their personal struggles & challenges? Just so you may believe the urgency of their message to you?

Oh how again, you are given the gift of mercy & knowledge now, and yet you still refuse to receive it, even mocking it still.

Father Alar, I can’t wait till you come back to speak again. It was so difficult to choose who to receive Holy Communion from - you or Father Calloway! So hard! Like choosing between Saint Joseph & Saint Peter!

To all who wonder what Father Alar is like in person: he is so welcoming, loving, so immensely kind and above all, incredibly humble.

Last thing, because of you & Father Calloway & Gaitely, the Rosary is off the wall & prayed every Friday during Adoration.

Saint Louis de Montfort, I’m just absolutely positive are proud of you 3. 🫀🫀🫀

[FaithandMercy]

Thank you, Fr. Chris. That was amazing! The more we know our Catholic faith the more we love being Catholics. God bless you and your family ❤

[veronicaf]

Fr. Chris, the quality and content of these videos are unparalleled. So many have had their faith taken to a whole new level solely because of this work. May God richly reward you! We love you!

[CarolPricep]

Nice talk. Giving up backstabbing is a good one, we should all do that.

[CarmenDucat]

Thank you for all the Priest & Nuns, unceasingly ❤😂❤😂🎉😢😅😮
