John XXIII: The Pope of Peace Movie

John XXIII the Pope of Peace - Sunday, September 18th at 1:00 PM in the Parish Hall.
Join the Adult Formation Committee after the 11:30 AM Mass for a potluck and a viewing of John XXIII The Pope of Peace.
An inspiring film starring Edward Asner as the beloved pontiff who came from common stock and was known for his simplicity, goodness, courage and love for humanity. This movie tells the whole life story of Pope St. John XXIII from his youth through his young priesthood, Bishop, Cardinal and Pope. Elected supposedly as an "interim Pope" who would just keep the status quo and listen to the advisers around him, John XXIII proved to be his own man when he surprised the Church and world by calling for the Second Vatican Council.
