‘It Burned His Hand’: What Happened When a Priest Processed the Eucharist on an Indian Reservation

“He reaches up to grab it — and as he does, his hand is literally thrown off. And he screams..."​

Whoa! This is incredible!

In a viral reel published by Parousia Media, Father Chris Alar of the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception tells an amazing story of his experience while leading a Eucharistic procession on an Indian reservation in Canada.

Father Alar says he visited the Cree Indians in Canada and decided to process through the reservation with the Eucharist. He said he processed through all the roads, blessing about 1200 homes.

As he held the monstrance, Father Alar says the Indian reservation’s ringleader yelled at him, demanding he remove the Eucharist from the reservation.

The ringleader screamed, “Get that [blank, blank] out of here!” multiple times.

Father Alar says he “keeps on walking” with the monstrance and affirms he will not let go of the Eucharist.

After his third demand, the ringleader approached Father Alar and attempted to grab the monstrance. The ringleader then grabbed the monstrance, but immediately let it go because it burned his hands.
