The film Fireproof will be screened at Bethany Movie Night 3, a free event scheduled for Friday, July 10, at 7:00 p.m. A separate movie will be shown for children, and a fully-staffed nursery will be provided. Movie Night is open to the community as well as to Bethany members, who are urged to invite their friends and neighbors. Free refreshments will be served after the screening of the film, and a drawing for a door prize will be held.
Fireproof is a family-friendly film about a firefighter whose marriage is disintegrating because of the way he treats his wife. When the couple prepares for divorce, the firefighter's father challenges him to make a commitment that will save his marriage. While trying to live up to his commitment, he comes to understand God's love and what it means to truly love his wife; but it may be too late to recapture the couple's relationship.
Movie Night 3 will be the third in a series of free movie events over the past several months. Those who attended the first two greatly enjoyed the movies and fellowship, and the third will be a lot of fun, too, so plan to attend. You'll be glad you did!

Second Free Movie to be Shown Friday
The second of a series of free movies offered to the public will be presented at 7:00p.m., Friday, May 29. The objective of the series is to provide the Pamlico County community with a free event that offers a Christian message, a chance for families to spend time together, and all-around entertainment for anyone.
The film, “Facing the Giants,” is a family-friendly action movie about a high school football coach who finds a new way to face challenges on and off the field.
The church will provide a fully-staffed nursery, and a separate children’s movie will be shown. After the screening, free refreshments will be served.
The first movie was a lot of fun for those who attended. If you missed the first one, be sure to see the second one, and bring friends! This is a chance to wear your Bethany polo shirt, too.
