Threat to Zeta’s home grown film
BBC News – Mar 11, 2005
The Swansea-born actress was expected to star in Coming Out alongside Alan Cumming as a gay cabaret performer turned rugby player. However, the US dollar’s weakness against the pound is causing financial difficulties for the project. Zeta Jones has been working on the movie with her brother Lyndon for the past six years. The idea behind the movie was originated by Ms Zeta Jones’ brother Lyndon Jones.

The sisters have become another example of working-class Catholic women who are not prepared to accept the old rubric “Croppie lie down”.

They sit on the red sofa in the front room of Paula McCartney’s terraced red-brick house, which functions as the campaign’s headquarters. Family photos of Robert crowd the surfaces. Paula, 40, who is considering running as an independent councillor over the issue of IRA involvement in her brother’s murder, is a mature women’s studies student at Queens University.

They train the pastor search committees, help them secure resumes and walk them through the process. And when that is completed, they work with the new pastor and the congregation to develop leadership from within the congregation to take a larger role in the life of the church. That includes cultivating home-grown leaders in Sunday School, evangelism, children and youth ministries, seminary extension and discipleship training. Lay leadership is important since bivocational pastors cannot be in every place they are needed. Jolinda, for example, a dealer in a casino which her family owned, was in such a place. The Bryants met her through their children who attended the same grade school as hers. Jo, as we call her, was a Christian but was backslidden.
