The Creation Care Team has finished the 2024 Climate Action Plan and are ready to share it with everyone! Modeled after the multi-year plan the congregation approved in January 2023, this plan is again structured around Earth Ministry/WAIPL’s Green Fields of Worship, Education, Buildings and Grounds, Community Engagement and Faithful Advocacy. As we all put this plan into action, we’ll continue to build our Peace Pollinator Project and Cooking for Creation programs. Beginning with Lent, we will launch a year-long Replacing Plastics Campaign to draw attention to the world’s plastic problem and what we can each do about it. The plan also includes key points from the ELCA’s Social Statement on Earth’s Climate Crisis, adopted in April, and the many ways Peace has been answering this call for years, including with our 2023 activities. We invite you, as you review the plan, to consider how you, too, might answer the call to our ministry as Earth Keepers.
