TheCRY Hollywood deeply honors the labors of the Hollywood church and prayer networks. A special page dedicated to these ministries and prayer networks will be posted in honor of them shortly.

It's not a concert.

It's not a conference.

It's a cry.

TheCRY (Hollywood) is a prayer movement that gathers believers from every denomination, ethnic background and generation for a full day of prayer, fasting and abandoned worship. Those who come to TheCRYs believe in the power of prayer, fasting and speaking the love of God over a city, nation or sphere.

Prayer leaders (aka: speakers), worship leaders (aka: musicians) and artists all come at their own expense and serve freely recognizing the day is a corportate offering to the Lord as we, with one heart, pray for Him to move in entertainment media.

The leadership of TheCRY Hollywood is made up of several seasoned leaders from the Hollywood area and beyond. These leaders will lead in prayer, worship and share inspiring sound bytes throughtout the event that will direct the gathering back to prayer. A list of leaders participating in and/or endorsing the event are listed here.

THE POSTURE IS VERTICAL. Those who attend TheCRY Hollywood are not coming to hear speakers or be entertained by but to press into God.

The types of things that will be prayed for during TheCRY Hollywood will be:

  • for God to bless those in the entertainment industry and move in their lives powerfully
  • for Holy Spirit inspired movies to be released
  • for those who are enslaved in the sex trade to be rescued
  • for an increasing move of Holy Spirit in our generation
  • and more...

We are believing God to touch the heart of a city, and sphere, that touches the world.

You are invited. We would love to see you there!

Commonly Asked Questions:

__________________________________________

Where did TheCRY come from?

TheCRY was begun by a group of Canadian leaders in 2002. Through TheCRY leaders have mobilized eight solemn assemblies in Canada and have literally seen the nation shifted through the culmulative prayer movement (of which TheCRY has been an integral part).

How Is TheCRY Different From TheCall?

TheCRY has been a very similar movement in Canada to what TheCall has been in the USA. TheCRY Hollywood, however, is not about a nation or even about a city. TheCRY Hollywood is about a sphere that is affecting a global generation. That sphere is entertainment media.

Because entertainment media affects America, Canada and the nations of the earth so profoundly TheCRY leadership, and a core of local Hollywood leaders, felt it was time to rally the nations to pray for this sphere that affects us all.

TheCRY Hollywood has the blessing and endorsement of Lou Engle and TheCall but is it's own organization.

TheCRY Hollywood deeply honors the labors of the Hollywood church and prayer networks.
