Wednesday, May 9, 7pm, Maple Grove United Methodist Church, 7 W. Henderson Rd.

An Act of Love tells the story of an unwitting advocate in the fight for equal rights within the Church, Rev. Frank Schaefer, who had his [United Methodist Church] ministerial credentials revoked in December 2013 after officiating his son’s same-sex wedding and refusing to denounce gay marriage rights. He was reinstated on an appeal in June 2014, a ruling that was upheld by the Church’s highest court in October 2014. Pastor Frank has become a national advocate for human rights.

Following the screening, there will be a 30-minute question-and-answer time with Rev. Schaefer.

This event is free and all are welcome; a “love offering” will be received in gratitude for Rev. Schaefer and his advocacy work.

Maple Grove United Methodist Church is located at the corner of W. Henderson Rd. and N. High St.; parking is available in the parking lot north of Aldrich Rd.
