Local congregation to host public screening of spiritual film

LAFAYETTE —The Unity Church of Sussex County is pleased to announce a special screening of the feature film, “Peaceful Warrior,” based on the best-selling spiritual novel, “Way of the Peaceful Warrior,” by Dan Millman. The movie chronicles the inspiring story of Millman’s Olympic dreams, near fatal accident and life changing encounter with a mysterious spiritual philosopher, Socrates. The movie stars two-time Academy Award nominee Nick Nolte as Socrates, Millman’s powerful, but elusive mentor. Amy Smart, plays the role of Joy, Millman’s love interest. Millman is portrayed by Scott Mechlowicz, effectively capturing the gymnast’s struggle between his outer drives and inner demons. “We are happy to be able to bring this type of entertainment to our community,” explains Rev. Janice Billera. The Unity Church of Sussex County, located at 25 Mudcut Rd,, will be showing the film at 8 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 3 and at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 4. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased at the door, beginning 45 minutes before the screening.
