Hollywood Prayer Network Prays For Britney, Paris And Anthea

BRITNEY Spears, Paris Hilton and Anthea Turner have a prayer: 

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Anyone who thinks Britney Spears’ best days are behind should know this—she does have a prayer.

The celebuwreck, who has been struggling to get custody of her kids while launching a comeback, is the top prayer-getter at the Hollywood Prayer Network, a group of more than 5,000 Christians that prays for stars instead of writing them off as lost causes.

The network recently passed a Bible to socialite Paris Hilton and plans to pass one to Spears later this month. It also picks up-and- coming child stars for its monthly Kids Prayer Calendar and pairs hundreds of mentors with struggling actors—the kind more likely to take your order in a restaurant than appear on your television.

Members of the network, which has chapters in 16 U.S. cities and eight countries, see Hollywood as the 21st century’s largest mission field, a powerful industry that can be used to sow the seeds of an international cultural and religious revival.

“We tell people, ‘If you’re angry at a TV show or you’re switching channels because of content, stop and pray for the people on the show,’” said Karen Covell, HPN’s founder. “If you really believe in God and you believe God has a transforming power, then leave it up to him.”

Because Jesus was a celebrity too…
