Organizers for the Projecting Hope Film Festival had just put the finishing touches on the 2008 schedule when an overnight FEDEX package arrived. Inside was a screener's copy of a new movie starring Ving Rhames (Mission Impossible, Con Air). The film, said the attached note from the producer, wasn't completely finished. Out of curiosity, Scott Anderson, founder of the Projecting Hope Film Festival, decided to "skip through" the movie to get an idea of what the film was like. What he got, instead, was the chance to view a powerful and compelling story of courage and hope. He was so impacted by the film, the festival line-up was altered, and "Saving God" was added as an official selection."Saving God" will show on Saturday, October 4th at 9:25 PM and Sunday, October 5th at 8:30 PM.

Supporting the Cause!
Thanks to the support of our presenting sponsor, Bojangles', along with a number of individuals, businesses and churches, Projecting Hope is able to offer its films FREE of charge to the public. A special thanks goes out to a couple of groups that have recently come on board: Searching for Proof and Faith, the sponsors of Friday Late Night - an event tailored for area youth groups (see August 5 entry for more details) and the DeSoto/Holland Group of Morgan Stanley, sponsors of the Festival and underwriters of the five screenings of FIREPROOF! NOTE: Showtimes and reserved ticket information will be available in a few days at http://www.projectinghope.com/
