Wed. April 22 is Earth Day and faith communities are celebrating Earth Week from April 19-26.   We have designated this Sunday, as Earth Sunday in our worship. 

We will pray for the Earth, our beautful planet home on Sunday. But in addtion to prayer, the earth needs are our actions and commitment. Environmental progress does not happen in silence. It happens when God's children show up. It is built through every day action from communities protecting ecosystems, to innovators advancing solutions, to churches advocating for justice and creation. Every action counts. Every voice matters.

What are you doing to celebrate the Earth?

Small, consistent actions add up to big change. Here are a few ideas. 

  • Calculate your foodprint: This is something we can easily do in our daily lives. By taking a few minutes to use a foodprint calculator, we can reflect on our eating habits and better understand how our food choices impact the planet. FOODPRINT-CALCULATOR
