Church new, Feb. 25

Faith Assembly of God to host movie night

Faith Assembly of God Church will host a movie night at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 25.

The movie on tap is “Fireproof,” which centers around a firefighter who deals with various practical and real issues of life, particularly his marriage, which seems to be coming apart at the seams.

He is faced with the challenge to make up his mind what direction he is going to go in regard to his life and what he is going to do about his marriage.

The movie gives a very true portrayal of life’s struggles and relationship issues and offers powerful positive messages and encouragement to the everyday man and woman to keep trying.

Pastor Darrell Nelson extends an invitation to all in the community who need a jumpstart on your marriage or for life to come and be encouraged by the movie. There is no admission charge.
