On April 19, 2022, about 30 of us went as a parish to see the movie Father Stu starring Mark Wahlberg and Mel Gibson. The movie is based on the real life of Father Stuart Long, a Catholic priest from Montana.
The National Catholic Register has a great article on the life of Father Stu. You can read more about his life here: Father Stu and the Gift of Divine Mercy| National Catholic Register (ncregister.com)
Check out some photos from the article of Father Stu, his family and the cast of the movie below. You will also find the trailer for Father Stu below as well.
