Grace Church to Host Gene Robinson Documentary Screening

Sundance film focusing on gay bishop will screen next week.

The following was submitted by the Rev. Noah Evans on behalf of Grace Church:

Grace Episcopal Church in Medford will host a free screening of the 2012
Sundance Award winning documentary Love Free or Die.

Love Free or Die is about a man whose two defining passions are in
direct conflict: his love for God and for his partner Mark. Gene
Robinson is the first openly gay person to become a bishop in the
historic traditions of Christendom.

His consecration in 2003, to which he wore a bullet-proof vest, caused an international stir, and he has lived with death threats every day since. Love Free or Die follows Robinson from small-town churches in the New Hampshire North Country to Washington’s Lincoln Memorial to London’s Lambeth Palace, as he
calls for all to stand for equality – inspiring bishops, priests and ordinary folk to come out from the shadows and change history.  For more information about the movie visit: http://www.lovefreeordiemovie.com.
