Faith Formation First Friday Fireside Film Festival: Amish Grace

  • Arlington Community Church 52 Arlington Avenue Kensington, CA, 94707 United States (map)

Faith Formation welcomes you to the second film of is summer series on Friday, July 7:

Amish Grace

The story is based on the true story of the murder of five Amish school girls in 2006 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.  The violence is offscreen—we don’t see it.  The drama is in the aftermath of this horrendous event, as the people of this community work through their grief and reach the point where they can even deal with the possibility of forgiveness.  Should an inability to forgive so evil a crime be a challenge to our faith?  We see the question enacted in the lives of real people.

Please plan to arrive at about 1:30 to allow time to grab your popcorn and settle in, and, if your schedule allows, linger for a few minutes after to discuss the film.
