Open Letter Calls Episcopal Church Idle Painted Picture
A group of Episcopal bishops led by Rev. John Gardner Murray indicts the Church as idle and painted, urging a nation wide evangelistic campaign in spring 1927. They condemn lax clergy and laity, urge a shift from inward spiritual care to active warfare for souls, and propose a mass mobilization targeting 100,000 members.

It includes stray phrases like a visitor, a question about selling, and a casual remark about saying no to four people. The text is garbled and historic in tone, offering no coherent report or clear event.
