By the time you watch the movie clip in this story, one individual will have ended their life by suicide because they think they have no other choice. According to the World Health Organization, a massive 800,000 people take their lives every year—one death every 40 seconds. That’s over 2,000 a day.
A free showing of the movie "EXIT: The Appeal of Suicide" will be shown on the South Shore on Saturday, July 15 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m at Tahoe Community Church in Stateline. There will be a question and answer period Q & A after the movie.
"WWII generation was about squelching painful topics, but now we're seeing a generation that says 'we have to talk about it,'" said church elder Bob Daly. "The movies shows rejection, depression and learning how to live bigger than ourselves."
The movie is from Ray Comfort and Living Waters, creators of the award-winning TV program The Way of the Master and the popular movies “180” and “Evolution vs. God.”
"Comfort does a very good job of presenting these topics and has a track record of bringing these type of topics to the forefront," said Daly.
The moviee shines a powerful light in the darkness and offers true hope to those who think they have none. Someone you know may be secretly considering their exit.
Tahoe Community Church is located at 145 Daggett Way in Stateline, Nevada. There will be childcare available during the movie.
