Earth Care Congregation

Earth Care Congregation

Congregations within the PC(USA) that are passionate about being good stewards of God's creation can become certified Earth Care Congregations by taking the Earth Care Pledge, and completing projects in worship, facilities, education, and outreach. Each year, congregations must get re-certified every year. The Presbyterian Church became an Earth Care Congregation in 2021. Learn about some of the projects we are completing on this page.

Season of Creation

Our Season of Creation for 2023 concluded at the end of August. Look below for a recap of this year's themes. We look forward to another Season of Creation next year.

What is the Season of Creation?

The Season of Creation began in Australia as a way to highlight our connection to non-human creation in a liturgical way. It also breaks up the long liturgical season of Ordinary Time. Like the Revised Common Lectionary, the Season of Creation follows a three year cycle. This year, we are following the "Wisdom Cycle." Let the bounty and diversity of creation become a part of the rhythms of worship just as Advent and Lent do each year. Click below for each Sunday's theme.
