KEENAGERS: "A Man Named Pearl"

KEENAGERS/DOUBLES & SINGLES LUNCHEON
& “A MAN NAMED PEARL”
Friday, October 23 at 12:15 pm (Fellowship Hall)

Enjoy lunch prepared by Jim Moore and a delightful 2008, highly acclaimed short film, “A Man Called Pearl” – a compelling documentary focusing on one genial man who reshaped his yard and unexpectedly reshaped the lives of hundreds of people. Pearl Fryar and his wife sought to buy a house in an all-white neighborhood in South Carolina where he eventually transformed his ordinary yard into a horticultural wonderland and this sharecropper’s son then became an internationally acclaimed artist and a celebrated cultural and spiritual icon of his impoverished town. This film is delightful, inspiring and totally irresistible. A free-will donation will be requested for the lunch.

RSVP to the church office. Friends welcome!
