Westgate Tabernacle homeless, the movie

By at 4 March, 2010, 5:13 pm

A documentary movie about Palm Beach County’s battle to shut down the homeless shelter at West Palm Beach’s Westgate Tabernacle Church will be previewed in this area twice next week. And if the trailer of filmmaker Mark Crupi ’s Avis Vs. Goliath is telling, then our local government stands to be savaged yet again. On background of the Rolling Stones ‘ Sympathy for the Devil, the trailer starts with: “It’s the story of a county with a long history of scandals . . . and its fight to close a shelter housing children.” Crupi, by the way, made news this week when he asked county officials for comment about his taped

interview with retired county secretary Cyndy Stephens . Stephens claimed that her ex-husband, Terry Verner , the county’s retired code enforcer, would give the church a hard time by day then drive a relative to its shelter at night. The movie’s title refers to the church’s bishop, Avis Hill . Said Crupi: “It’s a classic story of good versus evil.” Evil, here, being the government. The film will be shown at 7 p.m. March 12, at the synagogue L’Dor Va-Dor on Lake Worth Road in Lake Worth, and March 13 at the Westgate Tabernacle Church, 1600 Suwanee Drive in West Palm Beach.
