Praise and Worship

#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session# **Title**: Joe Speedboot **Language**: Dutch **Subtitles**: English **Length**: 96 min **Director**: Sam de Jong **More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-joe-speedboot/ **Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-joe-speedboot/ **Synopsis**: Sam de Jong (*Met Mes*) ventures into a punky and energetic film adaptation of Tommy Wieringa’s bestseller. After a bizarre accident leaves Fransje Hermans confined to a wheelchair, he seems doomed to spend his days in the sleepy village of Lomark. But then Joe Speedboot arrives. Fransje can no longer move or speak as a result of his accident, and with only one functioning arm, his life seems hopeless. This changes when he forms an unlikely friendship with the charismatic and reckless newcomer Joe. Will Joe help Fransje realize his passionate dreams and satisfy his desire for the enchanting PJ, or is he just another project for the adventure-seeking Joe? **How it works**: I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together. Hope to see you soon!

We meet every week in homes in different locations to fellowship, pray, be taught in the Word of God, and do life together! Homecells are a great place to connect with new people, find support and purpose in a life of faith in God.

Or bring a friend! You’ll leave with new connections and great conversations. During the dinner, question cards will be on the tables to spark deeper and more interesting discussions. 📍 **Location:** Café Libertas, Klarendalseweg 477-1, Arnhem 🚶 **Distance:** 7-minute walk from Velperpoort station 🕕 **Gathering:** 18:00 🍽️ **Dinner starts:** 18:30 **Entrance:** Bring a dish to share.

# **Band and caller TBA** Beginner lesson at 1:30, regular dancing begins at 2:00 pm NOTE THAT WE ARE TEMPORARILY DANCING IN THE AFTERNOON INSTEAD OF EVENING. Dance with us in the afternoon then you can still go out in the evening! **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 1:30 - 2:00, followed by dancing 2:00 - 430. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
