Creation Care Support Team

Being Faithful Stewards of Creation

The focus and goal of the Creation Care Team is to celebrate and support current initiatives while seeking additional ways to minimize our impact on creation as a congregation within our homes, our church and our community.
God has entrusted humankind with the responsibility to be stewards of creation, to care and share, to touch the earth with gentleness and with love, to respect all living things and to responsibly use the resources generously given to us.
​
The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. (Genesis 2:15)

On a daily basis our lives are defined by the choices we make.  Stewardship of creation relates to how we, as Christians, choose to use the gifts God has bestowed on us in furthering His mission in this world.  We become faithful stewards when we acknowledge God’s creation and the abundance of His gifts and respond with a determination to care for creation.  
The mandate of the Creation Care Support Team includes:
  • Providing leadership in identifying ways we can become more effective stewards of creation.
  • Being a resource for Glory ministries and congregation members as they seek to be faithful stewards of creation.
  • Learning from the expertise and best practices of congregation members, community organizations and businesses.
  • Inspiring and motivating the congregation and individual members to be creation care participants and leaders.
  • Making recommendations to church council regarding initiatives to help our church become more effective stewards of creation.
  • Initiating projects that, with the support of Church Council, will minimize our impact on creation.
