Holy Trinity Church Hall in Nuriootpa is “Left Behind: Rise of the Anti-Christ”.
Sunday 7th September at 7pm for this amazing movie. Still just $5 which gets you popcorn and a drink.
Six months after millions of people disappeared in the Rapture, the world is just beginning to recover. So, when a so-called expert claims that a second wave of vanishings is imminent, news anchor, Cameron Buck, sets out to disprove her theory.
On a parallel journey, Ray tries to convince his daughter that his wife’s disappearance was, in fact, the rapture. In a world where Biblical truth is censored and vilified, he’s desperate for answers. As their paths begin to converge, Buck soon realizes that the story is much bigger than he could have imagined.
They are indeed living in the end times prophesied in the Bible and facing the rise to power of the evilest and most dangerous human being in history...The Antichrist.
