Organisers of the "Hope for Haiti Now" telethon say it has raised more than $57m (£35m) for the victims of the Haiti earthquake.

Friday night's event set a new record for disaster relief telethons, said Lisa Paulsen, head of the Entertainment Industry Foundation.

Some of the world's top celebrities took part in the broadcast from New York, Los Angeles, London and Haiti.

It was shown on all major US TV channels, YouTube and on MTV in the UK.

More than 100 Hollywood and music stars took part.

Some of them performed while others, including director Steven Spielberg, singer Stevie Wonder and TV star Ellen DeGeneres, took telephone pledges from viewers. - bbc
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. - John 3:16-18
