Faith & Film Nights!

Join us this summer for our Faith & Film Series—a special opportunity to explore powerful themes of hope, grace, justice, and redemption through the lens of film. Each week, we’ll watch a different movie and engage in a meaningful, faith-based discussion afterward.

Multiple options will be available each night for families to chose from and movies will be announced on our Facebook page.
