The Fox Valley parishes of Holy Cross, St. Gall, St. John Neumann, St. Patrick, and St. Peter joyfully invite you to attend a very special theatrical screening of MARY of NAZARETH. This is an epic new motion picture on the life of Mary, mother of Christ, from her childhood through the Resurrection of Jesus.
This full-length feature film about the life of Our Lady, shot in English in High Definition, was filmed in Europe in very authentic locales with outstanding cinematography, a strong cast, and a majestic music score. Actress Alissa Jung gives a beautiful, compelling and inspired portrayal of Mary. Pope Benedict XVI had the opportunity to screen this film in the Apostolic Palace, and was touched by the portrayal of Mary so movingly revealed on film.
This is a great way to celebrate Advent. The film, rated PG and released by Ignatius Press, is appropriate for family viewing, although some scenes regarding the slaughter of the innocents or the crucifixion would not be appropriate for small children. See www.maryfilm.com for trailer.
