‘Journey to the Heart’ documentary at First Presbyterian


As part of its Wonderful Wednesdays program, First Presbyterian Church in Kannapolis will present the documentary, “Journey of the Heart: The Life of Henri Nouwen” tonight at 6:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. The viewing is free and open to the public.
Considered by many to be one of the leading spiritual leaders of our time, Nouwen (1932-1996) was a Dutch Catholic priest, popular professor, prolific writer and humanitarian.
After teaching for nearly 20 years at the Menninger Institute, Notre Dame, Yale and Harvard, he became chaplain at the L’Arche Daybreak community for people with developmental disabilities. He authored nearly 40 books on spirituality and the Christian life, many of which continue to be popular.
This documentary features a conversation with Nouwen just a year before his death, as well as interviews with friends, colleagues and family members.
First Presbyterian’s Wonderful Wednesday program includes an optional fellowship supper ($5 per person donation suggested) at 6 p.m., and children’s programs and a nursery at 6:30 p.m. For more information, please call 704-938-4623.
