We are all called to make responsible choices to care for our planet and all of God’s creation.

While many of us often think about the choices we make at home and during the week, it’s important we evaluate the choices we make on Sundays as well and how that can impact our environment.

Check out this helpful checklist for responsible stewardship of congregations and campgrounds produced by the Earth Stewardship Team. While some items may not be feasible or necessary in your situation, this list is a great way for us to start thinking about making more responsible choices at church.

What are some ways your congregation or campgrounds can make more eco-friendly choices? 💬 Share in the comments below!

In “Letting Grace Guide How We Welcome Newcomers”, Rev. Dr. Brett McKinley Pardue shares pastoral reflections on how his church practices small, simple gestures that can help newcomers feel more welcome.

This short article is an excellent resource for congregations to use when evaluating what barriers exist in our own church buildings as we consider how we can practice more intentional hospitality to those who walk through our doors for the first time.
