(Fayetteville, NC) – The next Operation Ceasefire Movie Night will be held on Friday, September 8, 2017 at Smith Temple Church, located at 2296 Slater Avenue in Fayetteville. The event begins at 6:30 pm and the movie is set to start at dusk.

The Smurfs movie will be shown at dusk. In addition to the movie, a K-9 Demo will be held and we will have a rock wall, bounce house, popcorn, drinks, and more on site.

This is a rain or shine event and an inclement weather plan is available.

The organizers are looking forward to entertaining families while sharing the message of firearms safety. The movie is free and open to the public. The goal of Movie Night is to talk with families about gun safety, gun violence, hand out brochures, and the event is a preventative strategy to cease firearm violence.
