Hallow will be featuring my song, Rescue, alongside their prayers and meditations to help us prepare for the passion, death, and resurrection of our Lord. It’s going to be such an incredible time to grow even closer to God through prayer, meditation, and fasting!”
A post on the Hallow website about the challenge reads, “This Lent, Hallow will once again launch its Lent Pray40 prayer challenge, beginning on Ash Wednesday.”
“Drawing on the incredible writings of St. Josemaría Escrivá, author of The Way, we’ll follow Jesus into deeper faith every day this Lent,” the post continues. “As we meditate on the lives of those who follow Christ, we’ll see that despite the noise and distraction of today, Jesus died on the cross so that we might experience His love, His peace, and, ultimately, eternal life. We need only to follow His Way.”
Hallow CEO and co-founder Alex Jones spoke to ChurchLeaders about the annual prayer challenge.
“Our Lenten challenge is always our biggest challenge of the year,” he explained. “It’s an honor to get to pray with so many incredible voices and our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world.”
