When people hear that our church has a creation care committee, the first question is usually some version of: why? Isn’t the environment a political issue? Shouldn’t the church stick to spiritual things?
We think the better question is the one Genesis asks us to sit with: what does it mean that God placed people in a garden “to work it and keep it”? Long before creation care was a movement, it was a vocation.
The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. — Psalm 24:1
What we do
We host events — from creek clean-ups to book studies — and we send a monthly newsletter with reflections, local nature notes, and practical ideas for households and for our congregation. We’re also exploring new ways to engage: native plant guides, energy audits for the church building, and partnerships with neighbors who share this work.
An invitation
You don’t need to be an expert, an activist, or even sure what you think about climate change to join us. You just need curiosity about what faithfulness looks like on a changing planet. Come to an event, subscribe to the newsletter, and bring your questions.
