To the churches in the Episcopal Diocese of Chicago
See ‘An opportunity for the churches in the Diocese of Chicago’ to the right, for a background of what this is about.
Just thought I’d like to relay the tallied results of a survey I received from someone who did a screening of Peaceable Kingdom for a large group of people. I’ll just give the questions and the tallies of the checked boxes without the comments, from the 30 responses she received. (The “no” and the N/A answers for questions 1 & 2 indicate that there was no change in the viewers’ opinions, etc. The “Maybe” answer for question 4 was more like a possible “no”.) This was useful to me, to see how others felt about watching it. I thought it might be useful to you, too, to know how people “survived”. In my opinion, this film fits in very well with Resolution I, which our diocese adopted last November.
