One of the coolest things we’ve ever been a part of. It changed my life radically, and I think it’s going to change the world.
Check out the trailer for Pétros Ení.
Coming soon to Hallow.
Putting my 6 yr old to bed last night.
“Who am I gonna marry Dad?”
“I don’t know love. Hopefully Jesus if I can have my pick.”
“Well I know at least he has to be a Catholic man”
“Haha why do you say that love?”
“Well I can’t have him love Satan!
“Haha well that’s true.”
So excited for this one. Can't wait for yall to hear it.🙏
🎁 It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for… our 2026 Pray25 reveal!
🔔🕯️Did you guess correctly? This Advent, we’ll be journeying through the Christmas classic, It’s a Wonderful Life! Guided by @prattprattpratt @JonathanRoumie @GarySinise @FatherJohnBurns @onegroovynun and Fr. PT!
🎄 The challenge kicks off on November 30—join the waitlist on the app today! We truly can't wait to pray with you every day this Advent.
Guys...confession is just absolutely wild.
The Creator of the universe sent His Son to die for us on a cross. He descended into hell and defeated death...all so we could hear those words 'Your sins have been forgiven.'
All we have to do is look up a time near us and go.
How cool is this life.
I would rather shut down Hallow than have it be a substitute for Mass.
Hallow exists to help you pray.
The summit of your prayer life will never be on an app.
Putting my 6 year old daughter to bed last night.
"You know a lot daddy"
"Well I don't know honey. I really only know a few things. Pray. Always pray. Even when things are hard. Pray. Love you brothers and sisters. Spend time with the poor. Trust and surrender to God. Honestly that's really all I know if I think about it."
"Really? What don't you know?"
"Well a lot"
"Like what?"
"Well I don't really know what gravity is."
"Well Dad that's easy. It's the stuff that holds things down to the ground."
"Yeah, but why?"
"So they won't float away."
"Haha I guess you're right love."
"What else don't you know?"
"Well...I don't really know how to advance to mystical prayer."
"Oh. That's easy too dad...
You just close your eyes. Put your hands together and say 'God, show me how to advance to mystical prayer'"
"Right again love. Right again."
My full time job is just trying to find ways to tell people that God is real and that He loves them.
Now that's a pretty cool job.
Thanks Jesus.
One of our biggest challenges of the year launched yesterday with Jonathan.
Remember You Will Die || Memento Mori
From Day 1:
My spiritual director told me something a few months ago that's stuck with me.
Our minds are like a snow globe. Always shaken so the snow is floating about all around.
Entering into prayer...recollection...is just taking time to let the snow settle.
Praise Jesus 🙏❤️
Alex, what the Lord has used you for is phenomenal. It helped me with my journey into the Church. I use it for the liturgical readings every single day. I introduced my Baptist Mum to it and she uses it even more than I do. And guess what that means? It means she is no longer hostile to the Church. It means she now openly says to people how proud she is of her daughter’s journey to becoming Catholic and involvement in the Church. It means she’s come to Mass with me on several different occasions, in three different countries. It means she’s came to support me as I was to receive the commissioning of the sacristans. It means she thinks my Priest is wonderful. It means she adores Father Mike, Dave P, Jonathan, etc.
It means it’s been a part of what has changed my life, Alex. It’s not prideful of you to see the impact of what you made in MILLIONS of peoples’ lives, of what the Lord placed on your heart.
I thank you, from Australia.
Hallow will die some day.
There is only one organization that will survive forever, and it's not this one.
Question is just do I let God use it to make me holy, or do I use it to puff myself up with pride.
Jesus, meek and humble of heart, deliver me.
My wife dropped off my son at school today and her teacher came up to her: “I have to tell you this story…we were going as a class to pray a rosary in the church and I told everyone they had to be quiet. Leo (my 4 yr old) responds ‘I know how to behave here. I’m here all the time.’”
That’s my boy 🙏
It’s funny, you always think about how many kids you ‘want’ to have in the abstract. ‘3 or 4 feels right. Idk maybe 5 feels too much.’
We have 4 little ones under 6 - our newest little girl’s name is Clare.
I might have told you in a previous life that I only ever wanted 2 or 3 kids.
But that’s not how it actually happens. Kids aren’t numbers in the abstract.
The real question is this ‘would you rather have a world where Clare exists or not?’
And then it’s not even close. Of course.
Here’s to as many more Clares as the Lord will give us.
