The Miracle Club, released in 2023, is a heartwarming film that follows the journey of three individuals from diverse backgrounds who form an unlikely friendship through their shared experiences of hardship and adversity. Set in a small town, the story revolves around a struggling single mother, a disillusioned war veteran, and a spirited teenager facing personal challenges. As they come together to support each other, they discover the power of resilience, hope, and the miracles that can arise from human connection. With touching performances and poignant storytelling, The Miracle Club is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of compassion.
Please plan to arrive at about 1:30 to allow time to grab your popcorn and settle in before we start the film at 1:45, and, if your schedule allows, linger for a few minutes after to discuss the film.

On Friday, April 26 Faith Formation will present its monthly film offering, Life of Pi in the ACC Fireside Room.
"Life of Pi," directed by Ang Lee, is a visually stunning adventure film based on Yann Martel's novel. The story follows Pi Patel, a young Indian boy who survives a shipwreck and is stranded on a lifeboat in the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker.

Common Ground provides hope for future generations with concrete ways to fix a broken planetary system. The film explores how regenerative agriculture can help heal the soil, our health and the planet.
Common Ground is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, Kiss the Ground, which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health. By fusing journalistic expose’ with deeply personal stories from those on the front lines of the food movement, Common Ground unveils a dark web of money, power, and politics behind our broken food system. The film reveals how unjust practices forged our current farm system in which farmers of all colors are literally dying to feed us. The film profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative “regenerative” models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America’s economy – before it’s too late.
We welcome all people to worship and prayer, and to be with us on our journeys of faith formation; join us as we experience the Divine One through Creation, Creatures, and Creativity in our world and worship.
On this fourth Sunday of Easter we're celebrating Earth Sunday!

Plastics." Tim K. Murphy will lead The ACC Ensemble through this week’s Hymns & diverse musical selections for this week’s Prelude, Special Music, Offertory, & Postlude. Susan Wootton will be this week’s liturgist & will light the Prayer Candles.
