Care for God's creation - how to start your journey as a church
This is a new Diocesan priority and it can feel overwhelming if you believe you are traveling this journey alone.
However, there is a great deal of support and resources available from within and outside the Church of England.
Here are some simple first steps to get you started:
- Form a team - remember this could include schools or other people outside of your church
- Appoint a Parish Champion - email their details to environmental.champions@durham.anglican.org so we can stay in touch and support them
- Register your church on the Eco Church website - this is free and will offer a framework to help you plan the next steps
- Make a plan to address some of the small wins given on that site
