‘Courageous’ Video Presentations  
Bethel Church will offer two showings of the film “Courageous.” The first showing will be on Tuesday evening, June 5 preceded by a potluck supper. The potluck starts at 6:30 p.m.; the video starts at 7:15 p.m. followed by dessert and discussion at about 9:15 p.m.

The second showing will be on Saturday morning, June 16 preceded by a free breakfast. The breakfast starts at 7:30 a.m.; the video starts at 8:15 a.m. followed by the opportunity for discussion at about 10:15 a.m.

In this recently released film, despite showing bravery on the job a group of law enforcement officers find themselves undone when tragedy strikes at home in this social drama. With the aid of their Christian faith, however, the men find a deeper well of courage in their hearts.

A powerful challenge to all men to step up to their role as spiritual leaders; a perfect way to prepare for Father’s Day.

This is a free event.
