Spiritual Movie Night Event “TO M O R R O W ”

Friday, Nov. 17th, 7:00 pm Hosted by Rev. Lani for a Love Donation

“Over the course of a century, our dream of progress

commonly called "the American Dream", fundamentally

changed the way we live and continues to inspire many

developing countries. We are now aware of the setbacks and

limits of such development policies. We urgently need to

focus our efforts on changing our dreams before something

irreversible happens to our planet.

The documentary TOMORROW sets out to showcase

alternative and creative ways of viewing agriculture,

economics, energy and education. It offers constructive

solutions to act on a local level to make a difference on a

global level. TOMORROW is not just a film, it is the

beginning of a movement seeking to encourage local

communities around the world to change the way they live for

the sake of our planet.”

This week’s affirmation: “I am willing to open to a greater flow of good.”
