Tom Cruise to recruit for Scientology church in Australia

Hollywood heartthrob Tom Cruise will launch a recruitment drive for his Scientology church in Australia.

The actor will relocate to Melbourne for four months with wife Katie Holmes who would work on her latest film, Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark, Daily Mail online reported.

"Tom knows that he will have his work cut out as the church attracts protesters," a source said.

"But he hopes his presence will help change minds and dispel the myths that Scientology is a cult," the source added.

Sources say the cast will have to sign 20-page confidentiality agreements and the star couple want to recruit a large 'entourage'.
