Earth Day

On Friday April 22nd, 2016, let us honour God’s creation and celebrate Earth Day!

We are called to care for God’s creation in our daily lives: “The Earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it, the world, and those who live in it.” (Psalm 24:1) Mission & Outreach challenges you to achieve one - or more - of the activities below:

  • Worship God, pray, sing, and reflect on our calling to be caretakers of God’s creation.
  • Buy locally, shop at the local Farmers’ Market, and ask educational questions about what are the pest control methods they use, how many different types of produce they grow…etc.
  • Have a Less Trash Day.
  • Have a Less Meat Day or go Vegan or Vegetarian for the day.
