Sustainable Living & Earth Care Congregations
The program of Sustainable Living and Earth Care Concerns accompanies all who wish to reflect on, live out, and act on economic and environmental decisions as part of our faith and values. We create and provide resources and presentations for reflection on economic and environmental justice issues, including environmental racism. We offer avenues for living in a more justice-focused economy, such as the Presbyterian Coffee Project and Eco-Palms, and for connecting earth care and Christian worship through Earth Day Sunday and Tread Lightly for Lent resources. Finally, we act via taking the Climate Care Challenge, becoming a Climate Ambassador, signing up for Action Alerts, or accompanying our congregation in becoming an Earth Care Congregation.
