'Interrupted Lives: Catholic Sisters Under European Communism'

Join Sisters of Social Service Oct. 25 and 26 for a ground-breaking film that tells the stories of religious sisters living their lives of faith, often in secrecy and against great adversity, during the reign of communism in Eastern Europe.

Early this fall, this seminal film is set to premier on ABC, and we’ll be hosting a panel with the women who created the documentary: Sister Anne Lehner, Sister Mary Savoie, Sister Margaret Nacke and Sister Judy Zielinski.

Come, bring friends, and contribute to the dialogue about these engaging and inspirational women. Five Sisters of Social Service are featured in the film.

Dates and times:
Open community screening 1 p.m. Oct. 25
Young adult screening 6 p.m. Oct. 25

These are stories you won’t hear anywhere else, and an event you won’t want to miss.
