Care for Creation
"God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air and every living thing that moves upon the earth" Genesis 1.28
As Christians we have a God-given responsibility for the care and well-being of all creation. In our journey as The Six towards Eco-Church status we are encouraged to pray for the care of God's Creation. The following prayer resource here from Green Christian, day by day each month, provides a valuable means to do so.
Five of our churches - St Mary's Newington, St Michael's Hartlip, St Margaret's Lower Halstow, St Mary Magdalene Stockbury and St Mary's Upchurch - have achieved bronze Eco Church Awards, and are working towards silver. All Saints Iwade is hoping to achieve a bronze award in the coming months.
