Screening at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church & School
St. Paul’s Lutheran School hosted the second local screening of our documentary The Phoenix: Hope Is Rising. Melany Jackson, founder of C-U at Home, and one of the people whom the film is about, came to help present the film and answer questions afterwards. Here are some of Phil Gioja’s thoughts written after this screening:
