Faith and Film

Come join us this Saturday at 5:30pm at the Emmaus House for faith and film. This week we will be watching the Israeli movie "Ushpizin."

A downtrodden couple finds hope and good fortune -- amid unexpected houseguests -- in this humorous take on religious Jews living in a modern world. Moshe and his wife are given a sum to help prepare for the holy holiday of Succoth and end up hosting two unannounced guests (rather, escaped prisoners). The couple must deal with their boorish visitors, who reveal Moshe's not-so-holy past, while upholding their faith.

Don't forget to bring your favorite snack. Hope to see everyone for a time of community and discussion.
