- Rescheduled for September 22 — For the September 15, 2024, showing of the free documentary at Mountain Shadows Presbyterian Church following worship, please be aware, this film deals with content that could be challenging for trauma survivors and others. For those who may need spiritual support, our Minister of Care, Rev. Laura Munroe, will be present. For people who wish to learn about how adults can protect and help children and foster peace and justice in our society, the film may be eye-opening, as it was for Mike Moyer, who is dedicated to raising public awareness of childhood trauma and life-giving ways to prevent it and address its negative impacts. As the song in our hymnal puts it, “May the God of hope go with us every day.”
- The free documentary was shown via a pre-registered link accessible through Mountain Shadows Presbyterian Church on February 6, 2024, at 4:00 PM or on April 4, 2024, at 9:00 AM.
