Admiral Church in West Seattle is hosting two films about race – on July 27 and August 3 – and the West Seattle Meaningful Movies is co-sponsoring. Pastor Andrew will facilitate the discussions. Note: Viewing will not be at our West Seattle Meaningful Movies location.

From Pastor Andrew: “Admiral Church is hosting a part outdoor/part online film series to engage our community in deep thinking about issues of race consciousness. Our events are free to all and designed for safety as well as connection. They are designed to build on one another, moving us from individual experience to structural consideration of the consequences of racism in American society. We hope that considering these issues in this way will lead us to meaningful participation in work for justice and mercy.”
