Mark Wahlberg is not one to shy away from the cameras, and likewise, he’s also very open about his Catholic faith.
There also seems to be no stopping the Father Stu actor. If he’s not filming a blockbuster hit, then he’s working on his various businesses, staying impressively fit, enjoying his family, and championing his faith on apps like Hallow.

In a recent post on social media, Wahlberg shares the grand opening of his restaurant, Flecha Cantina. Along with the crowd and all the ribbon cutting Bishop Vann from Orange County is on hand to bless the restaurant.
