Our next joint Faith & Flicks will meet on Tuesday, January 18 at 7:00 p.m.  in room 5 at Adrian First United Methodist Church, 1245 W. Maple St.

Our discussion film will be “The Kindness of Strangers.” The film can be viewed on Amazon Prime (nominal rental or purchase fee may apply).  There is no DVD version available.  If you don’t have Prime Video, please contact Lois Yerrick and we’ll arrange an opportunity to get together and watch the video before the 18th.

This is a film about a mother and her two sons escaping an abusive relationship with the husband and father and going to New York City with few resources.  Their lives intersect with three other people who show them compassion. The film says much about both the capacity and inability of social institutions to help people and gives real insight into agencies that few of us use.  But basically, it is about complete strangers becoming a family in disparate times.
