This growing group meets every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month! On Tuesday, September 13, they began with a time of prayer before discussing scripture. The group then dove into their improvisation class, picking up where they left off two weeks ago with “7 lines.” This week they also began learning how to develop the plot twist, character roles, and functions. Everyone in the group took turns working through scenes to practice what they were taught! It was engaging and fun!
On Saturday, August 20th, 45 people gathered at Karen Covell’s house to have a special evening called “Dinner, A Movie, and You”, where local composers and artists were asked to submit a song or 5 minute clip from a film or commercial hat they wrote and orchestrated. There was dinner, great conversation, and powerful testimonies!
On Saturday, August 13th, Imago Dei celebrated it’s ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY! With a huge cake and approximately 45 Industry Professionals gathered in the Mears center of First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood, it was a beautiful gathering. A huge thanks to Blake Russell and The First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood who led worship. What a blessing that we have been able to come together with those in our community for these powerful worship nights for one full year! The next Imago Dei is Saturday, October 8th!
Every month, Hollywood Prayer Network invites friends old and new to join us for an intimate meetup on the campus of first Presbyterian Church of Hollywood. In August, we had 13 friends join us for coffee, snacks, fellowship, and a time of prayer! We meet new friends, reconnected with old ones, listened to one another’s stories, shared opportunities to get plugged in, and prayed for one another! Our next meetup is Thursday, September 8th.

On Saturday July 23rd, 50 Industry Professionals attended a group event at the Getty Center Art Museum in Brentwood, CA. The day was a wonderful and refreshing experience as we set up 5 stations for our attendee to enjoy: A Lectio Divina, A Visio Divina, a Prayer Through Writing, a Prayer Through Sketching, and a Prayer Through Exploration in the gardens. It was a miraculous time of inner and even physical healing! After a wonderful time going through our sessions in groups of 10, many of our community members stayed at the Getty for the day, exploring and experiencing God through the art.
