Event Description: Downers Grove, IL – Four Downers Grove area churches including St. Joseph Catholic Church, Divine Savior, St Mary of Gostyn and Christ the Servant Catholic Church are coming together to sponsor a special presentation of the film “For Greater Glory” (rated R), a chronicle of the Cristero War. This special screening is slated for Monday, October 22, 2012 at 7:30 PM at the Tivoli Theatre, 5021 Highland Ave. Movie admission will be $5.00 per person. Tickets are available at the Tivoli Theatre box office or at any of the four presenting churches. “For Greater Glory” (2012) tells the long-hidden, true story of the 1920’s Cristero War – the daring people’s revolt against the atheist Mexican government that rocked 20th Century North America. The rebellion was set off by the persecution of Catholics and a ban on their public religious practices. The film asks the question, what price would you pay for freedom? In the movie, an impassioned group of men and women each make the decision to risk it all for family, faith and the very future of their country. Starring: Andy Garcia, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Eva Longoria and Peter O’Toole.
