This Summer, in collaboration with our Adult Ministry and as a continuation and evolution of our summer community forums, we are hosting a series of Wednesday evening community film screenings. Through film and conversation, we will deepen our understanding of environemental justice and youth and young adult mental health challenges, and more. These events are free and open to the public. All are welcome to gather with us in the Fireside Gallery.

JULY 8, 6:00 PM: HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT - PART ONE: THE STORM
AUGUST 5 at 6:00 PM: HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT - PART TWO: RESILIENCE
Join us for a viewing of Public Trust: A Film About the Fight for America’s Public Lands. This documentary explores the environmental challenges as an extinction crisis looms and climate change continues to be one of the greatest threats our planet has ever faced, America's 640 million acres of public lands support biodiversity and carbon sequestration. It’s essential that we fight for their protection by preventing the slashing of the Bears Ears National Monument in Utah, fighting the potential permanent destruction of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Minnesota, and stopping the de facto sale of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge—one of the last wild places in America.

Join us for a viewing of part two of the documentary Hiding In Plain Sight. In Resilience, the second episode of Hiding in Plain Sight, our “heroes” speak about finding help and inpatient and/or outpatient treatment. It also explores the criminalization of mental illness, tragedy of youth suicide, and “double stigma” that occurs when mental illness is combined with racial or gender discrimination. Throughout, the interviewees demonstrate the power of resiliency and hope.
