First Church Reuseable Canvas Bags   $3.00



 

The Environmental Stewardship Team is planning for the coming year.  One important part of this will be to develop a green vision for the next ten years. How can First Church be a better steward of God’s creation today and into the future? 

 
 

Some things to consider …

  • Where can we reduce waste?
  • How can we use energy more efficiently?
  • How can we use technology to reduce our environmental footprint?
  • What environmental improvements can we make at North Campus?
  • How can we promote caring for God’s creation through worship, Sunday school and other ministries?
  • How can the congregation be involved with community efforts to improve our local environment?
  • What global environmental issues do we need to emphasize with the congregation?
 

We need input from the congregation.  Please take a moment submit your ideas for Green Vision 2020.
