Pope John Paul II movie at Arcada Theatre
Special screening of epic Pope John Paul II movie at Arcada Theatre in downtown St. Charles on February 15th at 2:00pm
The Fox Valley parishes of Holy Cross, St. Gall, St. John Neumann, St. Patrick, and St. Peter joyfully invite you to a special screening of the amazing motion picture POPE JOHN PAUL II. This epic film follows Karol Wojtyla’s journey from his youth in Poland through his late days on the Chair of St. Peter. It explores his life behind the scenes: how he touched millions of people and changed the face of the Church and the world; how he defended the dignity of mankind. Jon Voight’s powerful, Emmy- nominated performance as John Paul II was widely praised, as was Cary Elwes as the young Karol. Shot on location in Rome and Poland in close connection with the Vatican, this is the definitive epic film on the life of Pope John Paul II. You wonʼt want to miss this incredible opportunity to see Pope John Paul II for the first time ever on the “Big Screen”!
The film is released by Ignatius Press, has a suggested rating of PG and is appropriate for family viewing, although some scenes regarding the shooting of the Holy Father and the Nazi invasion may not be appropriate for small children.
