The Creation Care Alliance of Western North Carolina is an absolutely wonderful resource for faith communities that are just starting out, or have been on the journey toward sustainability for some time. It provides a rich diversity of ideas based on the experience of many faith communities.
I found these 3 resources, located on their site, to be particularly valuable:
- Overview of Toolkit: A guide to cultivating care for creation. This document lays out the framework for action in a faith community with great clarity.
- Creation Care Alliance Launches Guide to Help Spiritual Communities and People of Faith to Act on Behalf of Our Planet. This document provides background information about the toolkit.
- Toolkit: The “toolkit” provides a structure for and resources on sustainability practices, spirituality and worship, education, buildings and grounds, fellowship and outreach, and advocacy and finance. It offers a solid foundation for creation care programs. It is a phenomenal resource for any faith community!
I highly recommend this website as a Creation Care resource for your faith community!
