RFA Premieres "A Place of Belonging"

RFA premiered its new documentary, A Place of Belonging, on May 1 during a special showing for guests gathered at the Capri Theatre in Montgomery, not far from where the original Respite Ministry began in 2012. Producer Jack York, cinematographer Zack Mejias and featured care partner Madeline White were all there to celebrate the release, as were 125 local supporters, including about a dozen Respite volunteers who helped Daphne Johnston start the original Respite Ministry 13 years earlier.


The 41-minute documentary was filmed at First United Methodist Church in Montgomery, as well as at three Respite for All communities in Birmingham, and others in Chapel Hill, NC, and McDonough, GA.
