All-church Teleparties!
Movies together from our own homes!
Saturdays, January 16 & 30, from 5:00-7:00 p.m., for all ages
Join Leisha , Director of Confirmation and Youth Ministries, for a Netflix Party! We’ll get together on Netflix and watch "Inside Out" and "Soul" all while in our own homes! With Netflix Party, we’ll have a chat function available to be able to chat with one another as well!
How does Teleparty work?
-
You need to have a Disney Plus account to teleparty.com this month and “Install Teleparty” (it’s free).
- Once Teleparty is installed, you’ll notice an “TP” to the right of your address bar.
- At 4:30 p.m. the day of, the link will be posted on Our Saviour’s Facebook page. Click that link and you will be brought to the movie. Once you get to the movie, click on the “NP” to the right of your address bar to connect with other church family members.
- We will give people 10-15 minutes to sign in and chat and then we’ll start the movie at 5:10-5:15 p.m. The chat function remains for the movie so you can continue to talk with your church family.
So grab dinner, grab snacks, put on some comfy clothes, maybe even build a fort and get ready for movie night!!
Sat., January 16, 5-7 p.m.
Inside Out, PG
After young Riley is uprooted from her Midwest life and moved to San Francisco, her emotions - Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust and Sadness - conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house, and school.

Sat, January 30, 5-7 p.m.
Soul , PG
Joe is a middle-school band teacher whose life hasn't quite gone the way he expected. His true passion is jazz -- and he's good. But when he travels to another realm to help someone find their passion, he soon discovers what it means to have soul.
