SELAM Under the Stars — Movie Night #4

On August 22, our community gathered for SELAM, a true-story–inspired film about young teachers who leave home to serve in schools across Afghanistan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Senegal. Shot across three continents, the film highlights courage, friendship, and the power of education to build peace.

Families and friends met in the GRFS backyard for a cozy summer lawn chairs out, free popcorn, tea, and coffee in hand. After the film, conversations flowed about service, teaching, and how small acts can change lives.

As the credits rolled, we were reminded that love is something we do—showing up, serving others, and learning together. At GRFS, Love is a Verb—and nights like this help us live it.

On Friday, our community members gathered to watch Pocket Hercules: Naim Süleymanoğlu — the incredible story of a Turkish Olympic champion whose strength inspired the world.

Guests arrived with blankets and chairs in hand, found their spots in the GRFS backyard, and settled in for a heartfelt evening. Laughter, awe, and pride filled the air as the film brought Naim’s journey to life. Free popcorn, tea, and coffee made the night even cozier, reminding us how the simplest comforts bring people closer together.

Because at GRFS, we believe that Love is a Verb — it lives in every smile shared, every chair offered, and every story told together.
