STUCK in Spokane

The movie STUCK is coming to town Friday, April 5th at 7 pm.

"STUCK is a new award-winning documentary film, produced by Both Ends Burning that uncovers the personal, real-life stories of children and parents navigating a roller coaster of bureaucracy on their journeys through the international adoption system, each filled with hope, elation – and sometimes heartbreak.
Please join the movement and share this event with friends and family! The movie screening will begin at 7:00 PM
For more info please visit: http://bothendsburning.org/movie/#tickets"


Jedd Medefind is the president of the Christian Alliance for Orphans.  Jedd shares in a short video about why the movie STUCK is important.  In his explanation he tells the story that we share about how OFF The WALL Ministry got it's name.  Jedd shares a powerful message and I wanted to share it with you.


Jedd Medefind invites you to watch STUCK adoption documentary from Both Ends Burning Campaign on Vimeo.

Blessings as together we seek to serve children locally and in other parts of the world.
