Movie Event One-time showing of the new Luther film at: CINEMARK SHERMAN SEPTEMBER 20TH at 6:30 pm This special screening is a chance to invite friends and neighbors to an event in a community setting.

This entertaining new film follows the adventure of Luther’s life, packed with political intrigue, kidnappings, and life-or-death showdowns. At the same time, it's a story about the most important questions of life, including "Who am I?" "What is my purpose" and "How do I get right with God?" It’s a must-see for any Lutheran, and a chance to share the message of your heritage with others.

IMPORTANT: All tickets must be purchased in advance. Tickets can be purchased at a special web site set up for the screening: http://luthermovie.link/sherman You can also order tickets through the Church by contacting Pastor Mattil 903-465-1016 or Lindel Davis 903-815-2420.
