Description
Résumé:I’m concerned about environmental issues, I belong to a local church, but I don’t know how I can help them weave creation-care into their life and mission—can you help? The article opens with stories of inspiring initiatives undertaken by churches, and explores some common features and some differences between the approaches and styles of churches. It outlines the framework and resources of Eco-Congregation—an environmental toolkit for churches, that each of the churches featured drew on. The article concludes with an invitation to those who want to see more churches nail their environmental colours to a mast, to start the process.
