EASTER
Acting with Joy
For the Love of Creation Faith in Action Campaign
During Easter, the Diocesan Social Action Office invites you to consider how we live on the earth and how we can come together to ACT for sustainable action for all life on the planet. The Faith in Action Campaign for the Love of Creation is a faith-based campaign for climate justice. Through it, each member of the family can make a personal commitment to reducing household greenhouse gas emissions.
