As Lent Draws to a Close, So Does Hallow's Pray-40 Challenge | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

As Lent draws to a close, so does the largest prayer challenge in the world, Hallow's Pray-40. This year's meditation focused on surrendering life to God with the book "He Leadeth Me" by Father Walter J. Ciszek, a Jesuit priest imprisoned more than 20 years by the Soviet Union. Walking alongside participants were a number of well-known people inside and outside of Catholic culture including Father Mike Schmitz, Mark Wahlberg, and Jonathan Roumie. Cofounder and CEO of the Hallow App, Alex Jones, joins to tell us more about it and his favorite part. Jones shares how many people are taking on the Pray-40 challenge. He explains why he thinks participation has been so high and whether it is celebrity influence or something else. Jones discusses what has been his favorite responses from participants. Jones fills us in on what's next for the Hallow app. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
