Jenn Gotzon, is a beautiful award winning actress that inspires many people with her ability to honor God with her career. Recently, I had the privilege to be on set as an extra for the Saving Faith movie produced by Rossetti Productions. That Saturday, I watched Jenn demonstrate genuine kindness to everyone that arrived. I realized all the stories I heard about her were true. She was caring and had inner beauty that was woven together so preciously. Her sweet personality radiated the theater. It was evident that acting for the Lord was not just a character she plays, but a true lifestyle that she lives each day. What is Saving Faith about? Saving Faith is a heartwarming comedy about a woman trying to save her family’s old school movie theater from foreclosure.

Chip Rossetti is the writer and director of Saving Faith. This is the third film that I have had the honor to work with Chip and his team on. It’s like making a movie with family and feels as if you’re on a long retreat of playtime. How do you feel playing the lead role of Faith? I love playing protagonist roles in movies that are clean, entertaining to all audiences with a good message. I search for scripts and characters like her to play because my passion is using the movies as a platform to inspire hope and make a positive impact upon people’s lives. My character in SAVING FAITH is Faith Scott. When I read the script, it was love at first sight. She was so much fun to play because of the amazing cast to play off of, MOV SPOTL Sav Fa By Lisa S like my Uncle Donny played by Donny Richmond, my love interest played by my real life love interest Jim E. Chandler along with the hilarious standup comedian Henry Cho playing our “light bulb challenged” movie theater handyman. There are so many wonderful cast members that are too many to name. Though a special shout out to Sherry Wright and Doris Collier for charming work! My character Faith Scott in SAVING FAITH reminds me of
