The mission of the Green team is to support Sacred Heart’s clergy and laity to incorporate Care for Creation into the fabric of their worship, actions and advocacy.
The Green team provides spiritual and technical support, information and resources to Sacred Heart to care for creation. This includes:
1) In our parish’s frequent prayer and witness, and in members’ everyday prayer intentions and witnesses,
2) In energy efficiency and other environmental activities such as, e.g. weatherizing the facilities, installing trees and rain gardens, replacing inefficient systems and appliances, installing alternative energy, greening church events, etc., at the parish and other sites.
3) In encouraging and organizing advocacy to protect creation through petitions, letters, editorials and other testimonies to officials, businesses, newspapers and others.
We welcome new C4C committee members.
