Second Saturday Movies Switch to Afternoons
Saturdays at the Movies will start at 2:30 p.m. instead of 6:45 p.m., beginning with the October 8 feature, Miracles from Heaven, the true story of one little girl, her journey to heaven, and an amazing story of healing. Annabel Beam spent most of her childhood in and out of hospitals with a rare and incurable digestive disorder that prevented her from living a normal, healthy life. One sunny day when she was able to go outside and play with her sisters, she fell three stories headfirst into an old, hollowed-out tree. A remarkable family drama and uplifting, hope-filled memoir, Miracles from Heaven will change how we look at the world around us. Make it a day at OSL with the movie at 2:30, worship at 5:00, and dinner afterward in The Gathering Place.

New for Middle- and High-School Youth
hatchetHatchet by Gary Paulsen. Thirteen-year-old Brian Robeson is on his way to visit his father when the single-engine plane in which he is flying crashes. Suddenly, Brian finds himself alone in the Canadian wilderness with nothing but a tattered Windbreaker and the hatchet his mother gave him as a present—and the dreadful secret that has been tearing him apart since his parent’s divorce. But now Brian has no time for anger, self-pity, or despair—it will take all his know-how and determination, and more courage than he knew he possessed, to survive.

Love & Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch. Lina is spending the summer in Tuscany, but she isn’t in the mood for Italy’s famous sunshine and fairy-tale landscape.

Then Lina is given a journal that her mom had kept when she lived in Italy, and suddenly she’s uncovering a magical world of secret romances, art, and hidden bakeries. There’s a secret that will change everything she knew about her mother, her father—and even herself.

Who Was Joan of Arc? by Pam Pollack and Meg Belviso. Joan of Arc was born in a small French village during the worst period of the Hundred Years’ War. For generations, France had been besieged by the British. At age 11, Joan began to see religious visions telling her to join forces with the King of France. By the time she was a teenager, she was leading troops into battle in the name of her country. Though she was captured and executed for her beliefs, Joan of Arc became a Catholic saint and has since captured the world’s imagination.
