Going Deeper

Many of us avoid speaking about a changing climate and other creation disasters because we simply don't know how. Take this free, online certification to learn such things as climate basics, climate and faith, climate solutions, climate communications, and climate advocacy. Available to you from The Episcopal Church and Blessed Tomorrow (with a special shout out to our Creation Care friends in the Diocese of Mississippi for highlighting this opportunity).

What We Are Preaching

We will periodically share creation care sermons delivered by people within our diocese. On Earth Sunday this year, two of our Commission members gave creation care sermons using the same readings. They are quite different and illustrate the many directions our lectionary takes us when considering our call to care for God's creation.
