Great story about Mark!! So glad he is a faithful Catholic and husband and father. God bless him and his family! And thank you for this great story!!
Testimonies 4m such grt personalities can inspire a lot….
God bless you Mark, as a commentator has already stated, the mainstream media would never report on this, on the other hand if Mark hypothetically came out as transweirdo the media would be all over him like a rash cheering him for his ‘bravery’.
Congrats Mark Wahlberg. I am very happy that you made the right choice. Keep up the good work and use the rosary as well. God be with you.

Congrats to Mark Wahlberg. I know how hard it is turn life around. You made the choice and want to do the right thing. You want to get out of the hole. Now you are the father of 4 children and you are giving them example what life is about. You went hell and back. I am sure God is very pleased that you made the choice. Keep on going to Mass and say the rosary everyday if you can. God bless your soul.
