Hollywood United
It’s a new season in Hollywood and we are seeing the Lord move in mighty ways! Christian ministries are uniting together and reaching out to the body of Christ to pray and support God’s movement in Hollywood.
To launch this campaign, a key group of Christian media professionals are challenging one another to unity and spur each other on to further God’s work in Hollywood. We invite you to join us in prayer… and we wish to give you the opportunity to take part in transforming Hollywood for Jesus with us.
Hollywood United is a collaborative effort between three Christian Entertainment Ministries: Act One, The Greenhouse, and Hollywood Prayer Network. Together these ministries are working to be more effective in living out The Great Commission in Hollywood.
We are seeking friends and supporters to come alongside us. By stepping forward and offering your prayers and gifts, you can be a part of what God is doing in Hollywood! Please get in touch with us so that we can make a difference here and around the world and follow us via Twitter during our event on October 6th at 7:30 PM PST!

Support for those threatened for defending marriage
The National Organization for Marriage announced that it is launching the Marriage Anti-Defamation Alliance, a new project to defend the freedom to express one’s belief that marriage should be the union of a man and woman without fear of harassment or punishment, reports Catholic News Agency. ‘My sense is that there are too many of us who believe that marriage is the union of husband and wife to stigmatize or marginalize if we come together,’ said Maggie Gallagher, co-founder of National Organization for Marriage. Gallagher told CNA that the Alliance was created in response to ‘increased reports, both public and private, of people whose livelihoods are being threatened because they disagree with gay marriage. Gay marriage advocates are seeking to create an America in which decent, loving, law-abiding Americans are afraid to stand up for the idea that marriage is the union of husband and wife, for fear of reprisals,’ she said.
Praise: God for this new American initiative and pray that it will be picked up by other marriage organisations worldwide. (Heb.13:4)

Argentina: Churches celebrate the ‘month of the Bible’
In Argentina, as in many Latin American countries, September is a month to celebrate the Bible. Churches coordinate lectures, workshops and conferences for youth, according to a news release from the World Council of Churches (WCC). ‘Spending a month each year focusing on the Bible helps us to affirm the Word as an essential nutrient to our faith and our commitment to life and justice,’ said Pastor Gerardo Oberman, from the Reformed Churches of Argentina associated with the Evangelical Church of the River Plate, the WCC reported. ‘The overall experience has different local nuances, but we are also motivated by the spirit of the Reformation in which one of the main slogans was the Sola Scriptura - that is, salvation by Scripture alone,’ said Oberman. September activities help believers ‘remember the centrality of the Word of God and highlight the work of Bible societies', said Bishop Nully Frank Brown of the Evangelical Methodist Church of Argentina.
Praise: God for His living word and pray that it will take root in the peoples. (Col.2:7)
