Church of the Nations will offer movie night this Friday, April 01 starting at 7:00 p.m. We will turn the chapel into a giant movie theater! Free drinks, snacks, and popcorn. Children are especially welcome.
We plan to show the movie “Tangled” which is based on the famous “Rapunzel” story. Yes I know – another cartoon. But Pastor Rick enjoys this movie very much and think adults and children both will like it. It has a score of 90% at Rotten Tomatoes movie website which is very high. It has several enjoyable songs.
You can drive yourself to the church building or the church bus can pick you up starting at Edward Gay at 6:40 p.m. – 30 minutes earlier than our normal Friday schedule. Please allow 5-7 minutes for the bus to arrive because of weather or traffic.
Our next English Conversation time will be Friday April 08. But we will have a movie night this Friday instead of English Conversation.

“Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd;
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack,
I don’t care if I never get back.
Let me root, root, root for the home team,
If they don’t win, it’s a shame.
For it’s one, two, three strikes, you’re out,
At the old ball game.”

It is one of the greatest foods in the world. And one of the greatest American inventions.
Pizza.
