AWOL – Adventurous Women Out Late

Movie Night at Church

The night after another unsatisfactory New Year party, Tim's (Domhnall Gleeson) father (Bill Nighy) tells his son that the men in his family have always had the ability to travel through time. Tim can't change history, but he can change what happens and has happened in his own life so he decides to make his world a better place...by getting a girlfriend (Rachel McAdams). But as his unusual life progresses, Tim finds out that his unique gift can't save him from the sorrows and ups and downs that affect all families, everywhere. From filmmaker Richard Curtis (Love Actually, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral), About Time is a comedy about love and time travel, which discovers that, in the end, making the most of life may not need time travel at all.

Humor

What is a scarecrow’s favorite fruit?

Straw-berries.


What room are ghosts not allowed to enter?

The living room.


Why did the Jack-o’-lantern look after the pie?

They were pump-kin.


What do you call the ghost of a chicken?

A poultry-geist.

We would love to have each family bring two pair of large tube socks with them to this event. The socks will be used in one of our outreach projects.


The theme for this event will be Hearts and Hands. Sprouts will be using their hearts and hands to help make the world a better place. During our event sprouts and family members will have the opportunity to tour our worship space and to ask any question they may have. We will be reading Just Help! How to Build a Better World by Sonia Sotomayor. Then we will work together to put together/create:


1. Sock of Love - Hygiene kits in socks for people without homes.

2. Baskets of Fun - Basket with needed items for children at Children's Hospital.

3. Canvas Bags- Decorating canvas bags with fabric markers that will be used in a Little Pantry for folks to carry their food home.

4. Greeting Cards - Decorating/coloring greeting cards that will be delivered to folks at a local nursing home.

We will end our time together with the sprouts of peace song and snack.

We look forward to having you join us on October 22nd! Feel free to bring another family with you! The more the merrier as we help build a more compassionate and inclusive world alongside our Muslim and Jewish siblings.
