Documentary Film in St. Louis, Missouri, July 10

Strangers Among You”, a new documentary from Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) International, shines a light on the lives of refugees, migrants, stateless individuals, and internally displaced people. Filmed across Colombia, Lebanon, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Canada, and Thailand, the global journey of Strangers Among You reveals the human stories behind the headlines.

Through powerful interviews, intimate storytelling, and unforgettable visuals, Strangers challenges us to look beyond borders, beyond labels—and see the sacred in every stranger. Drawing on deep Christian roots, the film reminds us that many biblical heroes — Abraham, Ruth, even Jesus — were once displaced.

The film debut, which is free and open to the public, is being shown as part of the Seventh Day Adventist General Conference being held in St. Louis this July. 

WHO: 

Arjay Arellano, director of Strangers Among You, Audrey Andersoon, Vice President, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, and the Vice Presidents of ADRA will hold a Q&A after the screening.

WHEN: 

Thursday, July 10, 2025 at 5:00 to 7:00pm

WHERE:

Ferrara Theatre, 701 Convention Plaza
