MOVIE & PIZZA NIGHT AT SJM
GRADES 1 – 4
FRIDAY
FEBRUARY 22ND
6 – 8:30 PM
PARISH CENTER
Washed ashore with an injured
tail, a dolphin, named Winter, meets a boy, named Taylor, with an injured
spirit. There begins the tale of healing
and redemption in the feature film (100 minutes) Dolphin Tale.
Sounds like a religious reel! And it is to the extent that laughs and
tears, lots of fun and a true story are religious.
Common-Sense Media calls Dolphin
Tale, “Sweet, inspiring for kids and tweens,” and rates it age-appropriate for
ages 7 and up. I have watched the movie
several times and understand that its PG rating is due to a brief dialogue (20
seconds) between Taylor and his friend Hazel about Taylor’s dad abandoning the
family. There are also some quick scenes
that include war veterans and a little girl with prosthetics. These are sensitively done, showing the
challenge and dignity of disability.
Of course, the most trusted
review in my book comes from grandson Hudson (age 6), “Pop, Dolphin Tale is the
best; your kids will love it.”
Kids: bring something soft for sitting—blanket, sleeping bag, pillow, bean bag.
1.
You gotta
RSVP to kidsrelig@optimum.net if your kid(s) are coming. I gotta know how much pizza to order.
2. I need some parent volunteers if
Movie Night is going to be a happy happening.
When you RSVP about your kid coming, tell me if you can help.
Love,
Deacon Charlie
