Rise @ FUMC Madison

Join us at FUMC Madison (203 Wisconsin Ave., Madison, WI) at 7:00 p.m. in room LL07 (the youth room, on the lower level).

We will be watching and discussing The Pursuit of Happyness with Will Smith.

According to Internet Movie Database (imdb.com):

“In 1981, Chris Gardner was a struggling salesman in little needed medical bone density scanners while his wife toiled in double shifts to support the family including their young son, Christopher. In the face of this difficult life, Chris has the desperate inspiration to try for a stockbroker internship where one in twenty has a chance of a lucrative full time career. Even when his wife leaves him because of this choice, Chris clings to this dream with his son even when the odds become more daunting by the day. Together, father and son struggle through homelessness, jail time, tax seizure and the overall punishing despair in a quest that would make Gardner a respected millionaire.

There will be snacks to share and discussion of the movie, as well as some talk about our new format and plans for the fall. We hope to see you there!
