Registration is necessary by registering at Lent Retreat or by leaving your name and phone number with Terrie Baldwin at (910) 880-1282.
Knights Movie Night
The Knights of Columbus "Movie Night" program presents a free screening of Shadowlands on Saturday, March 7 from 6:30 to 9:00pm in the Parish Hall.
In the 1950s, the reserved, middle-aged bachelor C. S. Lewis is an Oxford University academic at Magdalen College and author of The Chronicles of Narnia series of children's books. He meets the married American poet Joy Davidman Gresham and her young son Douglas on their visit to England, not yet knowing the circumstances of Gresham's troubled marriage.
What begins as a formal meeting of two very different minds slowly develops into a feeling of connection and love. Lewis finds his quiet life with his brother Warnie disrupted by the outspoken Gresham, whose uninhibited behaviour sharply contrasts with the rigid sensibilities of the male-dominated university.
Each provides the other with new ways of viewing the world.
When Joy is diagnosed with cancer, deeper feelings surface and the two of them marry. Lewis' beliefs are tested as his wife tries to prepare him for her death.

Please join us for a free screening on March 7 from 6:30 to 9:00pm in the Parish Hall. Admission is free. Donations are welcomed to offset the cost of refreshments.
