Dear HPN,
We are blown away that this year is drawing to a close! What a year of rejoicing with you, praying with you, serving with you, and growing with you! We are celebrating all of you as we look back at some wonderful experiences we had this year as a ministry!
- We had our annual Oscar's Prayer Walk once again in-person! We had 50 people come, pray, and connect with Dolby employees!
- In May we held our FIRST 3 Day Prayer Conference to celebrate the National Day of Prayer with a Hollywood Day of Prayer + Jesus Block Party for the 3rd Day (we are doing this again in 2023!)
- In July we held a beautiful contemplative and creative event for 50 industry pros at the fabulous Getty Art Museum called "Experiencing God At The Getty"!
- In August, Karen took 15 of some of the world's most visible entertainment Christians to the Vatican with Pope Francis for a 2 Day Summit where they had an unforgettable time and were encouraged in their faith!
- In September we had a fun-filled Family Block Party and Comedy Night!
- In October we had a Rooftop Prayer Encounter with 200 industry professionals praising and worshiping Jesus on the CBS Television City Rooftop!
- We had 3 prayer hikes this year, with hopes of doing many more in 2023!
- We had 4 Measure for Measure gatherings for Christians in music!
- We launched Home Base: Dinner parties for Christian Filmmakers, and had 4 excellent evenings of food, discussion, and connection.
- We had 5 Imago Dei Worship Nights, gathering hundreds of Christians to worship God freely on the FPCH Campus,
- We connected with a number of new ministries
- We launched a monthly writers group that is growing and thriving
- We saw our group of Christian comedians grow to holding WEEKLY gatherings to encourage, support, and PRAY for one another
- We connected one-to-one with almost 200 new faces through our monthly HPN meetups!
- We launched MONTAGE, a fellowship of Editors, and IN-BETWEENERS, a fellowship of professionals in Animation!
- We saw growth on social media platforms in engagement with our prayer call sheets, which has been SO ENCOURAGING because more people than EVER are connecting and praying!
We have loved so many moments this year, but some of our favorites!
- Karen: The Rooftop Prayer Encounter on the roof and heli-pad at CBS Television City was magical to me! Having so much prayer, worship and love as we looked over the entire city, including the Hollywood sign, was incredible!
- Kelry: I loved the 3 Day prayer Conference with the Jesus Block Party on our 3rd day! To me, it was a celebration of everything that is important to us at HPN: Learning about Prayer, Exercising Prayer, and Worshiping Jesus!
- Myesha: The Oscar's Watch Party was so much fun! It was great to dress up and see the community come together and even pray for those at the ceremony during the TV airing.

Neal McDonough Launching Faith-Based Production Company
We want to praise God for the bold Yellowstone actor Neal McDonough, who openly talks of his devotion to faith: “God first” he says! And, because of his faith, and similarly to fellow Christian actor Mark Wahlberg, Neal has launched his own production company for faith-based films! We are excited to see what projects come from this new company and what God does through Neal!

Lee Isaac Chung Twisters is Moving Forward
We want to celebrate HPN friend, Christian, and filmmaker Lee Isaac Chung, who's sequel to the 1997 Box Office hit Twister, will be coming to theaters in 2024. Lee has made a name for himself as a visionary and masterful storyteller with his recent film Minari, and we are thrilled to see him taking on a Blockbuster hit!

Celine Dion Diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome
Pray for Celine Dion who has been diagnosed with a chronic, incurable disease called stiff-person syndrome (SPS). SPS is an auto-immune condition that impacts the brain and spinal cord. She discusses this with her fans and shows how tragic this has been for her. We want the unconditional and healing love of Jesus to envelope her during this season! We also know that with God, nothing is incurable!

Golden Globes Nominees Announced
Join us in praying for everyone involved in The Golden Globes as it airs January 10th, 2023 on NBC. The entire Hollywood industry is either attending or watching so it’s the perfect time for us to pray for each one. HPN’s prayer is always to ask the Lord to show them their identity is in HIM and not in awards or recognition from man. And that they can experience His unconditional love in their lives!

Thank you so much for ending the year with us. We love you, thank the Lord for you and hope that you have a JOYOUS CHRISTMAS and a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR! We can’t wait to reach back out to you in January, 2023!
With love,
Karen, Kelry and Myesha

HPN YouVersion Weekly Devotional: Hope!
HPN wants to help meet your personal spiritual needs, supply you a solid daily devotional, as well as encourage you to include praying for the people, the projects, and the incredible influence of the Hollywood entertainment industry. We see it as the world’s most influential mission field and yet the people there struggle with the same issues that we do. This week we’re celebrating a topic that runs all through the entire Bible – God’s life-changing promise of HOPE. God tells us to hope in Him, to not put our hope in the things of the world, that suffering produces hope and that hoping in our wealth or status is worthless, but hoping in Him will never disappoint us. Join us this Christmas week in embracing God’s promise to put all of our hope in Him!
