This year, the Catholic prayer app called Hallow had a 30-second slot on the world's biggest advertisement stage—The Superbowl.
Hallow is ranked as the #1 Christian & Catholic app for prayer and features daily meditations, homilies, novenas and more to guide the faithful in deepening their spiritual life directly from their phone.
Their advertisement at the Superbowl included a call for prayer this Lent and featured Jonathan Roumie of the TV series The Chosen. He met the Pope in 2021.
-I have the honor of playing the role of Jesus in the TV series,“The Chosen.”
-Well, may you imitate Him, may you find Him, and may He make you happy.
-Thank you.
The commerical also featured actor Mark Wahlberg, who years ago, shared a stage with Pope Francis
MARK WAHLBERG
So listen, I've been very fortunate and haven't done too bad for myself in the film industry both as an actor and a producer. But I feel most blessed today being onstage with the Holy Father and here with all my fellow Christians. I truly feel like today I could do anything. And I attribute all of my success to my Catholic faith.
The advertisement of this Catholic prayer app reached the over 100 million people who tuned in for the 2024 Superbowl.
