Shalom y’all,
Hope you had a joyful Hanukkah and/or Merry Christmas! Such a season of miracles and time to rejoice in the birth of our amazing Messiah Yeshua (Jesus). We need to embrace His message of love and redemption now more than ever in these unsettling times. We rest in the assurance that God is sovereign and His timing is perfect.

As I reflect on all the amazing miracles in 2023 with the Rainbow in the Night movie, I am in awe that so much has happened in such a short period of time. My heart is full, and I am deeply grateful to the Lord and for every person who has prayed, given their time, love, and treasure to help bring Rainbow in the Night to the big screen. Sometimes it seems like a dream. But I am constantly reminded as I read His Word every day that when He calls a dream forth, He brings it to completion.
“Faithful is He that calleth you, who also will do it.”
I Thessalonians 5:24🙏

RED CARPET MOVIE PREMIERE | |
There have been so many exciting events in 2023 with the movie. Of course, the most thrilling event was the Premiere for Rainbow in the Night, which was held at the Movies of Delray theater in Delray Beach, Florida, on June 4, 2023. There were close to 180 people in attendance from Pennsylvania, Ohio, Minnesota, and all over Florida. It was a Red Carpet event and so much fun to see everyone dressed in formal attire. For me personally, it was epic to see my life story unfold on the big screen. I was blessed that the movie moved the audience and gave hope that we can move away from our painful past when we totally surrender to the Lord! | |
Dave and I were honored to attend the Red Letter Awards in Nashville, TN, on September 16, 2023. The movie didn’t make it in time for the submission for nomination, but it was a fun event and a wonderful opportunity for networking. I was honored to be interviewed for a podcast on the Red Carpet and talk about the movie. | |
CONTENT 2023 FILM FESTIVAL | |
|
|
|
On September 27-30, 2023, I attended the Content 2023 Film Festival and News Media Summit near Dallas, Texas. It was an honor that the Rainbow in the Night movie was nominated for two categories:
- Best Biography Documentary
- Best Storytelling Documentary
| | | |
|
While in Texas, I was invited to show the movie to several Christian high school teens for a home “watch party.” They were greatly impacted by the movie. My hope is they won’t make the same mistakes I did in my younger years. My prayer is they will stay close to the Lord and choose abstinence until marriage.

MAKING AN IMPACT IN CONGREGATIONS | |
On Saturday, November 4, 2023, L’Chaim Messianic Congregation in Lantana, FL, showed the Rainbow in the Night movie during the Shabbat service. After lunch, there was a Q&A and book signing. People shared how the movie spoke to their hearts and gave them hope. It was a blessed event, and people are very excited to see the movie shown wherever the Lord opens doors. | |
|
Stay tuned for many exciting Rainbow in the Night movie events for 2024. Please pray the Lord will continue to use this movie to greatly touch lives to promote healing, hope, salvation, and much fruit for the Kingdom. By sharing my traumatic abortion story, I want to impart that abortion is not a quick, easy fix as mainstream culture promotes. Sadly, abortion can have lifelong consequences, emotionally and spiritually, since it is a deep wound to the soul and heart.
