‘Let Me Have My Son’ showing at Bible Lutheran Tuesday

“Let Me Have My Son,” will be shown at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, August 1, at Bible Lutheran Church, 11 First Avenue SE, in Dodge Center. Doors will open at 6 p.m. for an Ice Cream Social.
The movie is the story of a young man suffering from mental illness and the father who loves him.
Jared Neher, the producer and editor of the film, will be speaking about his film career before the viewing of the film. Neher and his family are from the Dodge Center area.
From the film website: “Let Me Have My Son contains collected prayer letters written by Cristóbal Krusen on behalf of his son, Daniel, who was civilly committed to the state psychiatric hospital in Williamsburg, Virginia on his eighteenth birthday in 2001.
What began for Cris as cries of help for his son became words of encouragement to many others going through their own times of trial, words that still today offer hope and healing for the broken-hearted. As you will read in this book, Cris has seen sore and many troubles but also knows what it means to ‘see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.’”
