Mercy in Stockbridge,
Mass.
IRONDALE, Ala., April 2,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- If you're an NFL fan, you
know the name Elvis Grbac, former
quarterback for the San Francisco
49ers, Kansas City Chiefs, and Baltimore Ravens. You also know the
name Ben Steele, who played for six
NFL teams including the 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, and Green Bay
Packers, and is currently assistant coach for the Arizona
Cardinals. And if you're Catholic, you almost surely know
Mark Wahlberg's brother Jim Wahlberg, either by name or by his work as
executive producer of "Mother Teresa: No Greater Love."
All of these men have gone on to do some incredible work in the
Catholic Church and all will be featured live on EWTN's Divine
Mercy Sunday's Preview Show, which airs at Noon ET, Sunday, April
7. (Find EWTN at www.ewtn.com/everywhere.)
The program will also feature Soloist Ashley Nemeh, a
multifaceted recording artist and songwriter, who has collaborated
with Grammy-winning producers and writers. She is now dedicated to
using her voice to honor the Blessed Mother in everything she
does.
Of course, all of this will lead up to the main attraction,
Divine Mercy Sunday Mass, which will be celebrated by The Most
Reverend Timothy P. Broglio, JCD,
Archbishop of the Archdiocese for Military Services, USA. Mass will begin at 1 p.m. ET.
Here's a sneak peek at what to expect from the Preview Show, as
well as a roundup of other incredible Divine Mercy events, which
will be airing on EWTN on this special day:
Wahlberg's talk during the Preview Show is entitled "A Boston
Street Kid's Story of Addiction and Redemption." He currently
serves as the executive director of the Mark Wahlberg Youth
Foundation, which was created to improve the quality of life for
inner-city youth. Wahlberg has been married for 28 years and is the
father of three children.
Grbac, who is currently finishing his master's degree in
theology, will discuss why "The Father's Love Should be Our Love."
He has been married for 30 years and is the father of three
children.
Steele, who has a special ministry of making handmade rosaries
for men to promote devotion to Our Lady, will talk about "Winning
