Sunday Worship In-person and Streamed Online at 10am

Anti-Racist Film Club

Our July selection is the musical, West Side Story (2021)!

The most recent cinematic adaptation of this classic musical take on Romeo and Juliet, Spielberg's West Side Story follows an interracial relationship between Tony and Maria. Set against the gang violence of 1950's New York, this movie highlights a 20th Century understanding of the "American Dream" and how it perpetuates the struggle of immigrants in a hostile city.

This film is rated PG-13 for violence and language. Click here to watch a full trailer.

We'll be showing the movie upstairs at First Olympia UMC in The Redwood Room THIS Sunday, 7/6 @12:30pm. There will be a light lunch provided before/during the screening. There will also be popcorn! Our discussion will be held the next day on Monday, 7/7 @7pm over Zoom. If you're interested in either of these events, please RSVP here:
