Creation Care/Green Day is April 28

Our responsibilities as followers of Christ to be good stewards of God’s creation and the abundant blessings we have in the natural world are addressed in The Social Principles of the United Methodist Church. The Green Day event on April 28 at St. Stephen’s is designed to raise awareness, educate, and inform about issues of Creation Care and environmental awareness. St. Stephen’s volunteers will be joined by several outside organizations to present information, demonstrations, and children’s activities to make us all more aware of our responsibilities and opportunities to fulfill them. We can all make changes, small and large, that will have a positive effect on our environment and improve conditions for future generations. St. Stephen’s is becoming more responsible in how we use resources in our facility management and our programming. Let us all work together to prioritize needed economic, political, social, and technological changes to support a more ecologically equitable and sustainable world and a higher quality of life for all of God’s creation.

Please plan to attend the Third Annual Green Day event on Sunday, April 28 immediately after the 11:00 worship service. Please note that parking will be restricted in the back parking lot where the event will occur if it is not raining. Additional parking is available along the entrance driveway. It could be a great day to walk, bike, or carpool to church for some of us. Lawn chairs and/or picnic blankets are encouraged if we can be outside. Chairs and tables will also be available. If it rains, we will be in the Fellowship Hall.
