"The Blessed Hope"
Feature motion picture scheduled
“The Blessed Hope”, a feature
motion picture, will be shown on
Saturday, October 31 at Foursquare
Church, 850 Madison Ave.
In a day when Christians in many
parts of the world are persecuted for
their faith in God, western church
goers
remain
unscathed.
Participation in church activities, in
fact, provides fulfillment and

enjoyment for multitudes. But what
if the lot of Christians elsewhere
became the traumatic experience of
present-day westerners?
Gus Fairfield, a typical North
American
Christian,
began
wondering, after he visited a local
bookstore in search of material for a
father and son banquet. He happened
upon the largely forgotten classic,
Foxe’s Book of Martyrs. Noting his
interest, a salesperson introduced
him to some current volumes
depicting
the
suffering
of
contemporary Christians in various
parts of the world.
“What if such conditions existed in
my town?” Gus quietly asked
himself.
As he mused - and as the film
visualizes - it was almost as if the
events transpired in his own
community.
Wife, LU, and coUegian son, Dan,
became part of his musing - and the
film’s visualization - as the Fairfield
family found themselves in frank and
stark confrontation with the
difference between true discipleship
and the life of ease and convenience
experienced by multitudes of western
Christians.
Also featured on the program, in
addition to the film showing, will be
skits, games and food. This is a free
community event and is open to
everyone. The party will last from 6
pm to 11 pm. The film will be shown
at 10. Come and join us!
