The River Church Community

Call and Response is a new movie being released that addresses human trafficking in America. The movie alternates between documenting the nature of human trafficking in America and concert footage of US and British musicians playing songs they wrote in response to slavery and oppression. It's a rock-umentory that is both educational and inspirational.

The River has the opportunity to contribute to the abolition of human trafficking by helping to support Call and Response.  Not only is the movie raising awareness about the issue, but any money made by the production team is being donated directly to organizations that are fighting human trafficking.  If Call and Response can create some buzz opening weekend, it can appear in more theatres and for a longer run.

The River has bought 100 tickets for opening night Friday Oct. 10th as well as Sunday night Oct. 12th. Our hope is that you will consider attending the movie and inviting some a few friends to go with you. This is an excellent opportunity for small group leaders to get inspired for another Missional Risk, or anyone who is trying to figure out ways to have gospel conversations with their non-christian friends and co-workers. The movie (not produced by Christians) makes a compelling case about a pressing issue of justice that everyone can agree is wrong and needs to stop, and provides the added benefit of listening to some great music from folks like Switchfoot and Natasha Bedingford.

We will be showing the trailer on sunday morning, but you can also see it at here: http://www.callandresponse.com/
