POTLUCK AND MOVIE NIGHT – “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood”
September 3, 5:00 p.m.
Join us for a Potluck and Movie Night on Saturday, September 3 in the Family Life Center. The Potluck Dinner will begin at 5 p.m., followed by the film “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood” (Rated PG). The movie is based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers, played by Tom Hanks, and a cynical journalist sent to interview him for a profile. It is a timely story of overcoming skepticism with kindness, love, and forgiveness from America’s most beloved neighbor.
We encourage you to invite your friends and neighbors to join us! Please bring a dish to share for the potluck and come spend Labor Day weekend with your St. John’s church family as we share a meal and enjoy a movie about one of the most influential Christians of the 20th century – Mr. Rogers! A nursery and childcare will be provided along with an alternative movie (My Neighbor Totoro, an animated, G Rated film) for children who may not be ready for this drama.
The movie, “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood” is a great companion to our September worship series by the same title, which will explore faith lessons from Mr. Rogers and the life of Fred Rogers. A five session, faith-based discussion guide for the movie is available for small groups and Sunday School classes who would like to follow the movie up with further Bible study and conversation. Contact Pastor Lane (pastorlane@stjohnsbr.org) to receive the materials or for more information.
