The film “Luther,” starring Joseph Fiennes in the title role of the 16th-century Protestant reformer, will be shown this Sunday Feb 26th at 3 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. This will be our first Movie Afternoon of 2023. Admission and popcorn are free, and those attending are encouraged to bring their own soft drinks.
‘Luther’, which was made in 2003, covers the life of Martin Luther from his becoming a monk in 1505 to his trial before the Diet of Augsburg in 1530. The Augsburg Confession, published in 1530, is the primary confession of faith of the Lutheran Church and one of the most important documents of the Reformation.
The film, rated PG-13, was partially funded by the Christian financial services company Thrivent.
For those unable to attend, “Luther” will be available in DVD format for checkout after its showing.
