CARE FOR PEOPLE. CARE FOR THE EARTH.
The purpose of the Green Chalice initiative is to connect Christian faith, spiritual practice and creation consciousness in order to demonstrate the fullness of God’s shalom. It aims to empower congregations with ideas and resources to enable them to walk gently on the earth. As a Green Chalice Congregation, we affirm the Green Chalice Covenant:
As children of God and followers of Christ Jesus, we covenant to:
Worship God with all creation and pray for the healing of the earth.
Study the climate crisis and engage others in climate solutions.
Repent and forgive for the harm we have inflicted on the earth that sustains life.
Advocate for ecojustice public policies and witness by living sustainable lifestyles.
Rest in God’s good creation and invite others to delight in nature.
