Peter wonders if "the film functions as a parable of life in the 1990s? With corporate downsizing and restructuring so much a part of life" even in the church.

Report of the Vision 2019 Task Force, chaired by the Very Rev. Peter Elliott "For consuderation at General Synod 2010".
"As the General Synod gathers once again, we will consider a new strategic plan -- Vision 2019 -- that invites the Holy Spirit to shape the life of our church more and more deeply in in paths of discipleship and mission. Vision 2019 takes three years of listening, prayer, consultation, writing, and waiting on God's Spirit and gives them back to the church as a trajectory for our national ministries under the auspices of the General Synod. Vision 2019 is more, though, than simply a vision for the work of General Synod. It challenges the whole church to receive the Anglican Communion's Marks of Mission as the Spirit's invitation to uinderstand ourselves as called into God's mission through our commitment to Jesus and the life of his church". -- Intro., p. 4.

Notes
"Once your eyes have been opened to issues of race, class and gender, you see them everywhere, from the street to the screen. Through this lockdown, many of us are spending our evenings at home watching films or series on streaming services. Many of these deal overtly or subtly with issues of race, gender and class, and can prompt us to a deeper exploration of our assumptions in a world dominated by white men. Here is a brief selection of some I've found especially noteworthy". Author looks at four shows: Lupin (Netflix), Funny Boy (CBC Gem), Bridgerton (Netflix) and The Black Church: This is Our Story, This is Our Song (PBS). "Over the course of my life and ministry I have had my eyes opened again and again and I'm aware that I much more learning -- and unlearning -- to do. I am buoyed with the hope that as I -- and we -- become more aware of the dehumanizing of people because of their race, gender, class or sexual orientation, there will emerge a more robust embracing of the question in the baptismal covenant: 'Will you strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being ?' My prayer is that my song -- and our song -- will truly become, 'We will, with God's help'."

Notes
"A review of 'A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood', the Tom Hanks movie about the Rev. Fred Rogers. https://bit.ly/2V4hWMH".
"Visit anglicanjournal.com for these and more online-only stories. Including reports from the Anglican Communion,, messages of hope, theological reflections and coverage of the church's response in this unusual time".
"In her film about children’s TV star the Rev. Fred (“Mister”) Rogers, an ordained Presbyterian minister, gifted director Marielle Heller chooses to focus not on the children for whom Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood was made, but on a grown-up, journalist Lloyd Vogel (Matthew Rhys), a man who carries the scars of an unhappy childhood into his adult life. Lloyd Vogel, a character loosely based on acclaimed journalist Tom Junod, is writing, as Junod did in 1998, a profile of Rogers for Esquire magazine. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood translates the ministry of Rogers from children’s TV into the adult world of violence and dysfunction". "Keeping silence to remember those who loved us into being, asking to be prayed for, and talking about our feelings: somehow this film transforms those thoughts and sentiments from the banal to the sublime. Throughout the film, Tom Hanks strikes just the right tone, never stooping to an impersonation of Rogers but offering instead a loving portrait of a person through whom the grace of God shines. For in Fred Rogers we don’t just have a nice guy—here is someone whose life has been transformed by the love of God in Jesus Christ. Because of that transformation, Rogers is able to put into practice the second of the Great Commandments, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself.” If each person who understands themselves as a follower of Jesus could embrace this even a fraction of the way Rogers did, it would indeed be a beautiful day in our neighbourhoods.
