As leaders within Mennonite Church Canada, we commit ourselves anew to working for climate justice and a sustainable future for all God’s creation and all God’s children. We commit to engaging deeply as a nationwide community of faith, inviting congregations and regional churches into discernment regarding the ways we as a church can respond to the climate crisis. We encourage individual members of Mennonite Church Canada congregations to make this same commitment, and to commit to working in and through their congregations and regional churches to pursue these goals.
This resource provides a roadmap for congregations that are seeking to develop a stronger ethic of creation care. Caring for creation may mean different things for different congregations depending on the particular interests of the congregation and the local area where the church is located. It can be overwhelming to think about how creation care can be incorporated into your congregation, as there are numerous actions a congregation can take to be more sustainable and environmentally friendly. This roadmap gives starting points and guidance as congregations seek to care for creation in meaningful ways.
