Catholic prayer and meditation app Hallow has partnered with its biggest name actor, Mark Wahlberg, to provide exclusive content to the Chicago-based startup.

Hallow, the world’s most downloaded and used Catholic app, has released a new set of resources related to the actor’s latest film, “Father Stu,” which hits theaters on Wednesday. Wahlberg put his own money into the making of the film, which is based on the true story of the boxer-turned-priest Father Stuart Long. Starring Mel Gibson.

Although Wahlberg was a devout Catholic and didn’t shy away from sharing his faith, Father Stu was his first religious project. When the founders of Hallow — who were huge Wahlberg fans — heard about it, they reached out to him to see how they could help people discover the film while helping people get into the habit of praying every day.

FATER STU STAR MARK WAHLBERG says he may “leave Hollywood sooner or later”.

“I was really inspired by his openness in sharing his faith and morning prayer routine,” Hallow co-founder Alex Jones told Wahlberg’s Fox Business. “Throughout his career, he gave many lectures on the importance of faith to him.”

According to Jones, the Wahlberg deal is definitely Hallow’s largest and most extensive partnership in recent memory, but the app has partnered with a number of other high-profile actors, from the actor who played Jesus on “The Chosen One.” Jonathan Roumi and is one of their main content creators. Actor Mario Lopez also created content for the app.

Hallow has grown rapidly since its founding in 2018 at the hands of Jones, Erich Kerekes and Alessandro DiSanto.

A year ago, the app raised $12 million in a Series A round led by venture capital firm General Catalyst, and another $40 million in a Series B round that included billionaire Peter Thiel, Drive Capital, Teamworthy Ventures VCs with Narya, Contrary Capital, Uncork Capital, Susa Ventures and Scott Malpass – the only American named to the Vatican Bank board by Pope Francis.

To date, the app has approximately 2.5 million downloads, 65 million prayers completed, and a 700% year-over-year increase in the number of sessions completed.
