A homegrown response to the UN’s World Press Freedom Day theme “Journalism in the face of the Environmental Crisis” is a special film and panel discussion event on Sunday, April 28, from 1 – 4 p.m., at Waterloo’s Princess Twin Cinema. Admission is $20 at the door, and parishioners and church members are especially invited because of our understanding of Creation as a gift from God to be cherished and defended from abuse. This event is mounted by local journalists, many of whom are friends of the local Christian and interfaith communities. Details and advance tickets are available from https://www.ink-stainedwretches.org/film-festival.html
