Well, good morning, everybody, and thank you for joining us here at the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy.

I'm Father Chris Ehlar. We are very excited. We have a special edition of explaining the faith today.

This one is a special talk that we are doing, and it's very timely. It is going to be on the prophecy on Venezuela and what is going on there. And we are going to be referencing the servant of God, Maria Esperanza. This is fully approved the apparitions from a Marian apparition called Batania in Venezuela.

This is a fully approved, one of only 25, fully approved in the church.

That's amazing.

And so we're going to hear on the words of Maria Esperanza and our special guests.

We actually have two of them today.

The first guest, after I speak, will say a few words, and we're very excited to introduce her daughter.

She's with us today. And Esperancita, and she will be seeing a few words, probably correcting me on any of the mistakes, if I make,

but we're grateful.

And then after that, we brought back a reunion.

Camer Man Giuseppe will also be here to say hello.

So thank you and for joining us and let us begin with a prayer

in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen. Heavenly Father, we ask you send the Holy Spirit down upon us. We pray for peace. We pray for blessings upon our nation,

upon the nations of all those watching, and most of all on Venezuela,

for the people and for the government

to bring light and justice,

and most of all, God, back to the country.

And Mother Mary, we ask that you wrap your mantle around her

and make this blessing

and this education of this talk
