Protestants are into this big time. We will probably book two showings of about 200 each. Another church in town has five already and I think there are over a dozen more evangelical churches in our city doing the same.

We are also doing a three week sermon series going into Easter based on the movie and distributing 10,000 flyers regarding the series.

Evangelical Protestants have snatched up thousands of tickets for the opening of the film, scheduled for Feb. 25, hoping also to use it as an evangelism tool. Gibson has screened the movie for thousands of Evangelical pastors to generate interest among Christians.

Our Church was able to obtain 3000 pre-release tickets for showings on Feb 23 & 24. They will go on sale at Church on Sunday and we expect they will be sold out before the 11:45 service. The pastor is encouraging the members to view it first and then, consider taking a non-believing friend or family member after it is released to the General Public.

As an evangelical Christian, I say go for it, Catholic brothers and sisters!
