The Way
Campus Ministry will sponsor a viewing of the movie The Way starring Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez.
Sunday, March 4
Jeuck Auditorium
1 p.m.
The Way is a powerful and inspirtational story about family, friends and the challenges we face while navigating this ever-changing and complicated world. Martin Sheen plays Tom, an American doctor who comes to France to collect the remains of his adult son (played by Emilio Estevez), killed in the Pyrenees in a storm while walking the Camino de Santiago, The Way of Saint James. Rather than return home, Tom decides to embark on the historical pilgrimage to honor his son's desire to finish the journey. What Tom doesn't plan on is the profound impact the journey will have on him. |
