COMMUNITY VIEWING
AUGUST 31 2023 6pm
MVMMS Auditorium
Thank you for joining us at our viewing of Apple TV’s presentation of the hit musical Come From Away with keynote speaker Kevin Tuerff.
It was a wonderful night of community bonding with over 500 people in attendance. The energy in the auditorium was palpable and Kevin Tuerff brought the house down. We look forward to planning our next inspirational event celebrating the power of kindness.
On 9/11, 38 planes, carrying 7,000 passengers were forced to land in Gander, Newfoundland, Canada when US airspace was shut down. Kevin Tuerff was one of those passengers. The kindness and compassion he experienced shaped his life’s purpose from that point forward. We are honored to have Kevin speak at our community viewing of Come From Away.
In 2002, Kevin began an annual tradition to honor the lives lost in the 9/11 attacks, and also pay tribute to the heroes of Newfoundland, Canada, who showed the world their kindness in 2001. To learn more, visit Kevin’s website Pay It Forward 9.11.
