Hollywood superstar shares his big heart

Oct 12, 2016

Actor Chris Pratt has starred in some of the biggest movies of the last five years including Guardians of the Galaxy, Jurassic World, and the recently released remake of The Magnificent 7 but he also is a blockbuster to sick kids.

Chris has been visiting hospitals between films for a number of years so that he can help put smiles on the faces of kids doing it tough. Since he is the star of a number of films that kids love and was the voice of Emmett in the blockbuster The Lego Movie it’s not hard to see why his visits are so popular.

A deeply spiritual person after his son was born dangerously premature Chris and his wife actor Anna Farris try to help out the organizations that helped them in their dark time. That is when their now healthily toddler allows there to be free time.

Chris decided to share a recent visit to a children’s hospital so that he could share the stories of some brave kids and their families.

Rowan was Groot for Halloween and his brother was Rocket. What an awesome kid. Great parents and from a great family. You're in my prayers tonight little man. Stay #strong @seattlechildrens

Madisen is #strongagainstcancer. What an awesome kid with such a beautiful smile. She's a lover of art and fashion and she's going places. Thank you @seattlechildrens for the opportunity to come by and brighten some days. My heart is full. Proverbs 3:27 Don’t withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.

Ever since Jack's premature birth, we have a special affinity for the NICU (neo-natal intensive care unit) Today I spent a little time with Coen and Zion, twins who were born too early only a pound and a half each. Thank you to the doctors and nurses at @seattlechildrens The boys are doing fine. Although they're both missing their big sis.
