Creation Care
Creation Care Committee
Contact: Violet Bierce
We believe that to truly love our neighbor we have to be aware of the impact of our acts and omissions on the whole earth.
Mission Statement
- In gratitude for God's wonderful gift of creation, acknowledging our role as its stewards, the Creation Care Committee of Springfield Christian Church will encourage and enable the congregation to honor the life of all living things, the order of nature, the wildness of wilderness, the richness of the created world; and will encourage and enable the congregation to seek and to celebrate the holiness that God has placed in these things. *
- To accomplish this we will have the following goals:
- To better understand creation;
- To appreciate and celebrate creation; and
- To take care of creation
