Dear Father Chris,
I am that "one person" you helped. I'll bet there are many others, too!
Thanks so much for all you do.
Our family is in a complicated, difficult situation and I asked for Mother Teresa's help especially, last night at night prayer, now today we heard your talk. Many, many thanks! We are Marian Helpers and we will keep praying for/with MIC.

Thank you for this topic. I was one of the doubter for Mother Teresa holiness. After watching this video, I reassured that the Church never give sainthood to people who don't deserve it.

Thank you Fr. Chris! hope you get to have a little rest today. God bless you and all the Marians abundantly always!

I really needed this. I had started converting to Islam, but Mother Theresa didn't let me go. God showed me through her that this is God testing me, not God forsaking me.

Fr Chris, I thought of you today at mass in Birmingham UK 🇬🇧 There was a guy with a MICHIGAN sweat shirt on. I shouted to him after mass GO BLUE, but he looked at me like i was crazy!! 😂 Thank you for still doing the talk when you must be so tired. Was awesome as ever. Jesus and Mary must be so proud of you xxxxx

Thank you Fr Chris for this awesome Talk about Mother Teresa . I watched her Movie gave me a goosebumps and teary eyed. Mother Teresa’s charitable work was unmeasurable. Sharing this Talk because some of my friends missed this movie. Praying for your good health Fr Chris for all the things you do. Continued healing for your Mom Dad and family. Also, praying for the Missionaries of Charity. Thank you Br Mark for assisting Fr Chris. God bless you, your family, MIC and everyone 🙏♥️

Father I am a catechist back home in the Philippines we had the privilege of visiting the home for the dying at Tayuman, Manila and meet her. She really was prayerful, humble, simple, holy, warm, welcoming. Story has that she had special privileges from a sheik, where she provides her from transport wherever she went because of her caring for even Arab sick and afflicted. She was loved by all even by Muslims.

Fr Chris, you are nothing short of amazing! To think you gave us this well-organized and enlightening talk on the life of Mother Teresa on little-to-no sleep. Your dedication and love for us is unbelievable! You are a real servant of the Lord who is on the fast track to sainthood. May God’s favor rest upon you, may He shower you with many graces and grant you some much needed SLEEP! You are very much loved by your Marian Helper brothers and sisters for all you do for us. God bless you!

@gracianomendoza8671 3 years ago

Fr. Chris can’t understand why tears falling while watching and listening to this. To think that I complain about my financial situation, my being lonely and alone. My small problems while dear St. Theresa endured all these. Wow! St. Mother Theresa please pray for me

Thank you father Chris for a very enlightening and informative talk about St Mother Theresa. Before listening to your presentation I knew Mother Theresa by name but I really didn't know much about her. Thanks to the information that you presented I have found a whole new love and respect for Mother Theresa and everything that she endured.

Thank you father Chris and God-bless you and yours 🙏
