The City of Diamond Bar provides free movies at Sycamore Canyon Park every Wednesday night in the summer.  They also have a free concert before the movie.  It is a nice place for people to gather and enjoy.

We will also have Free Summer Movie nights once a month at our church again this summer.  Each evening includes FREE pizza, popcorn, juice drinks and candy.

We will be showing “Tangled” on July 10, and “Planes: Fire & Rescue” on August 7 – beginning at 6:30 p.m.

It takes a lot of people to put these evenings together.  We have parents of young children, empty nesters and college students leading these events.  Many of these leaders come early to help with set up and serve the free food.  Others stay late, long after the movie is over, to put our worship center back together.  It really is a team effort.

My favorite part of the evening is getting to meet the parents and kids who come.  We frequently have new guests who read about the Free Movie Nights in the local paper or who are invited by another family in our church.

Let me suggest that you clip out this article and put it on your refrigerator to help remind you about the Free Movie Nights at our church this summer.  If you come, I hope you will allow me to meet you and introduce you to some other young families in our church.

Let’s go to the movies this summer!
