Suggested Practices and Examples for Implementation:

• Care of creation is understood and named as a vital aspect of how we love our neighbors and practice social justice.
  • Messages often connect human and non-human issues to creation care concerns.
  • Climate change is named and discussed openly as a moral dilemma requiring our attention, prayer, and courageous action. 
  • The congregation plans activities in response to the messages calling for creation care. 
• Regularly share with your faith community the steps you are all taking to care for creation and invite new ideas.
• Include concerns for all creation (non-human and human) each week in prayer. 
• Engage youth and children in creation care activities habitually. 
  • Check out our page with children’s/youth activities for ideas.
