When I am gone, just release me, let me go - so
I can move on into my afterglow.

You mustn't tie me down with your tears, let's
be happy that we had so many years.

I gave you my love, you can only guess how much you gave me in
happiness.

I thank you for the love you each have shown, but now it's time I
traveled on alone.

So grieve for me awhile, if grieve you must, then let your grief
be comforted with trust.

It's only for a while that we must part, so bless the memories
within your heart.

And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with
a smile and a "Welcome Home."

We give back to you, O God, those whom you gave to us. You did
not lose them when you gave them to us, and we do not lose them
by their return to you. Your dear Son has taught us that life
is eternal and love cannot die, so death is only a horizon, and
a horizon is only the limit of our sight. Open our eyes to see
more clearly and draw us close to you that we may know that we
are nearer to our loved ones, who are with you. You have told
us that you are preparing a place for us; prepare us, that
where you are we may be always, O dear Lord of life and death.  
Amen

The first move night of 2007 was held on June 21 at
Dark thirty.  The turnout was good and the movie
was exciting if you like football.  The title of
the film was "Facing the Giants", the story of the
little football team that through faith came from
the bottom of the heap to beat the team that had
taken the state championship the previous season.

This was a new, action-packed, family-friendly drama about a
high school football coach who draws up a new game plan for his
team and himself. In his six years of coaching, Grant Taylor has
never had a winning season. Even the hope of a new season is
squelched when the best player on his Shiloh Eagles decides to
transfer schools. After losing their first three games of the
season, the coach discovers a group of fathers are plotting to
have him fired. Combined with pressures at home, Coach Taylor
has lost hope in his battle against fear and failure.
However, an unexpected challenge helps him find a purpose bigger
than just victories. Daring to trust God to do the impossible,
Coach Taylor and the Eagles discover how faith plays out on the
field * and off.
With God, all things are possible *
The next movie will be held on July 12th. The title proposed
right now is Open Season.  A great film for all you hunter's. Hope
to see you there.  There is also a movie scheduled for July 26th.  
Don't know what it will be yet!  See you there!
