Environmental Ministries

The core work of environmental ministry for Province IV is support education, organization, collaboration and promotion around the issues of eco-justice, eco-stewardship and eco-spirituality. The ministry contributes to this work in three key ways: 1) making connections between people, 2) enhancing communications and awareness of environmental ministry in the province, and 3) providing resources. In this past year, much attention has been paid to creating common resources and programming within the Province in partnership with the Center for Religion and the Environment at the University of the South, Mike Schut, Economic and Environmental Affairs Officer for The Episcopal Church, and Fletcher Harper, Executive Director of Green Faith.
