Dear Dave,
 If you're receiving this newsletter for the first time...WELCOME to the family! And if you're an old friend... WELCOME back! REEL Time is an extension of the annual SONscreen Film Festival, which is sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in North America.
Over the past several months REEL Time has been highlighting the winners of this year's 2009 SONscreen Film Festival VII that took place in Simi Valley, CA on April 16-18, 2009. It was a fantastic weekend of films, inspiration, and education. Hope you're ready for next year's SSFF VIII.
SAVE THE DATE-- April 8-10, 2010! Call for entries coming soon! We're launching a NEW Non-Student Independent/professionals category for films--and that is going to be exciting!
AND... THIS JUST IN! The Jonathan  Dulan Highschool Award will be adding a cash award prize! High school student(s) can win up to $500 in addition to the collegiate scholarship prize this year! Things just keep getting better and better for 2010!
And finally, don't forget to look out for the 2009 SONscreen Commemorative DVD that will be released just in time for the holidays... great stocking stuffer!
Thanks for your continued prayers, support and for being a part of our family!
