Earth Care Congregations
Is your church active in earth care or interested in becoming more involved in being stewards of God’s earth? One starting point can be to use “Earth Care Congregations: A Guide to Greening Presbyterian Churches” (Disponsible en Español)
To become certified as Earth Care Congregations, churches take the “Earth Care Pledge” and complete activities in the fields of worship, education, facilities and outreach.

NOTE: The annual certification period is January 1 - February 15 of each year.
To become certified in the first year, a church fills out the Earth Care Pledge and tracks its commitments in worship, education, facilities, and outreach.
To become re-certified, a church tracks its continued commitments. Progress in each of the areas should be marked since the time of the last certification.
