Yesterday, Sarah Hubinsky Phelps, associate director of L.A. Voice, joined us for worship and spoke for part of the service about the way Hollywood Church could action its vision of being a Eucharistic, cross-shaped, poured out community for the sake of Hollywood. Following worship she met with a small group of leadership from the church to talk in deeper ways about how our church can partner with other congregations in Hollywood and Los Angeles to affect deeper change at a systemic level.
One such project that will happen in the very near future involves helping get an important measure on the November ballot.
This ballot measure involves raising the tax currently charged for a pack of cigarettes to raise money to provide health insurance for the approximately one million California children who are currently uninsured. A group from the Hollywood Church will be at the Thai New Year festival next Sunday, April 2, to help get signatures. The measure needs to be endorsed one million California registered voters in order to make onto the November ballot. You'll hear more about this on this website as well as through the Hollywood Church Weekly e-Letter (email me to received this e-letter).
