After Suicide: Hope for Them & You
$18.31
A book of profound mercy and healing for those touched by suicide.
In 1993, college student Chris Alar lost his grandmother to suicide. A decade later, returning to his Catholic faith, he discovered reasons to hope — for her salvation, and for his own healing. Now a priest in the Congregation of Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, shares those reasons with you.
Drawing from the Church's teaching, the message of Divine Mercy, and his own grief, Fr. Chris offers two forms of hope that can transform even the darkest sorrow:
- Hope for the salvation of those who have died by their own hand
- Hope for the healing of those left behind
Pastorally sensitive and rooted in orthodox Catholic teaching, this book unpacks the treasures of the Church's Sacraments and devotions — bringing real, transforming grace into the struggle of grieving suicide. Whether you are mourning a loved one or seeking to understand the Church's compassionate response, this book will walk with you through one of the most painful experiences a person can face.
