Join us for a special screening of Moses the Black - a 2026 gritty, faith-based crime drama film about a modern-day Chicago gang leader whose life is transformed after he receives an icon of St. Moses, a fourth-century saint with a remarkably similar past.


St. Moses' radical transformation — from outlaw to desert monk — remains one of the most compelling conversion stories in Church history.


Following the film, stay for a Q&A discussion exploring:


•⁠ ⁠Moses' journey from a violent past to repentance and faith.

•⁠ ⁠What his story teaches us about redemption, forgiveness, and the possibility of change.

•⁠ ⁠An introduction to Orthodox Christianity and its history, for those curious to learn more.



This event is hosted by Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church as an opportunity to share the Orthodox Christian faith with our community. Whether you're Orthodox, curious about the tradition, or simply want to see a great story of transformation, all are welcome.
