Creation Care and Climate Justice – June 25

Group 236

As we do the hard work of re-examining our church structures and our society, it’s the perfect time to incorporate concerns for environmental stewardship. 

In this hour, we will discuss briefly:

  • why Lutherans care for creation,
  • how climate change is related to racial justice, and
  • practical steps congregations and individuals can take.

This Leadership academy will be presented by Pastor Sarah S. Scherschligt and Don Craig.
