Since the church is sponsoring the Mens Shelter for the month of February, we’ll be in the Chapel this month. You can find it by continuing past the Martin Luther King Room (our usual venue) to the end of the hall, turn right and it’ll be the next room on the right.
Hope to see you there…

For the month of February, which is Afro-American History Month, Sensible Cinema will pay tribute to a living martyr of the Twenty-First Century, Mumia Abu Jamal, rather than featuring one from past centuries by screening the film Long Distance Revolutionary.
Unlike any other film about Mumia Abu Jamal this definitive documentary directed by Stephen Vittoria focuses on his dramatic life as a writer, journalist and revolutionary from Pennsylvania’s Death Row.
Through prison interviews, archival footage and dramatic readings and aided by a chorus of voices, including Cornel West, Alice Walker, Angela Davis and others this riveting film explores Mumia’s life before, during and after Death Row. (120 MINS.)
As usual, popcorn and other refreshments will also be available.
Free Admission donations appreciated). For more information please contact:
