We are postponing the Movie Night originally scheduled for February 5th because of AV equipment issues. Movie Nights will resume as soon as these technical difficulties have been resolved. We will update the website, eNews, and Facebook when we are ready to start back up again. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
February’s touchstone’s theme is Power. In 1857, Frederick Douglass said, “Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.” Thus, a struggle will be required by each generation to renew, repair, and/or reclaim things like democracy, equality, liberty, freedom, and other rights that can be denied or undermined. Our tools of power include reason, non-violence, and courage to oppose hatred, violence, deceit, and more. In keeping with this theme, George Orwell’s book Animal Farm tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where the animals can be equal, free, and happy. We will be showing the 1999 British-American adaptation of the book, which is not a cartoon.
Come join us Saturday, February 5th, 4 pm, at the Fellowship.
