“My faith has really allowed me to overcome a lot of things — and hard work. You know, nothing comes easy…especially when you’ve got your back against the wall and you’ve got a lot going against you,” he told Morgan.
“But I wanted to prove to people through my actions — not my words — that I was going to change and that I was going to make a positive impact on the community that I come from,” Wahlberg continued, as he delved into the activities he participates in to help those in need. ”I could not forget about where I came from and find myself in this position without helping and giving back.”

Hey Dorothy, a wonderful post and certainly a welcome addition to the virtual world, letting people know that there are Catholic actors whose faith is not compartmented into some corner, when they go to work.
Hollywood needs more good men like Wahlberg! I hope his life example will encourage other Catholic actors to allow their faith to guide them.
Bravo for the post.

That's a great video of Mark Wahlberg.Check this very inspirational one with Jim Caviezel (Passion of the Christ).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0A6zyN37uw
local tv news wcco on 7/8 had a gushing report on the shriners and masons I think because of parades etc. around the 4th. report mentioned 3 famous people that were masons, 2 of which were charlton heston and john wayne. my wife says they were both catholic and for sure not masons. plse clear this up. kenekraft@gmail.com
Wahlberg's Catholicism is suspect. He delivers expletive filled speeches to his Hellywood cronies.
