Sanctuary United Church of Christ presents its monthly Faith and Film program. Bring your own beer, wine or soda and experience the places where pop culture meets faith. Attendees watch a current film, followed by a discussion about themes of morality, faith, and humanity led by local theologians and community leaders.

This month’s film tells the story of a precocious 6-year-old and her ragtag group of friends whose summer break is filled with childhood wonder, possibility and a sense of adventure while the adults around them struggle with hard times.  The film offers a colorfully empathetic look at an underrepresented part of the population that proves absorbing even as it raises sobering questions about modern America.

Screening and discussion led by Rev. Anastasia Kidd and Rev. Chad Kidd; Doors open at 6:30 p.m.; screening, 6:45 p.m.; discussion, 8:45 to 9:30 p.m.

Note: While Sanctuary’s license provides inexpensive access to a wide range of current and big-studio films, the church is limited in its ability to market the film title outside of its own network.  Please call 781-395-3360 or e-mail office@sanctuaryucc.org for information about the film title.

Cosponsored by the Medford Film Collaborative. Attending the film is free, but a free will offering will be collected; suggested donation of $10 per person.

There is limited seating at Sanctuary UCC, so please RSVP online if you plan to attend.
