We’re over the moon to share we’ve received the Silver Eco Church Award from @ARochaUK in recognition of our efforts to care for God’s earth. It has been an incredibly exciting year for our eco work, but it's far from over. Now we’re going for gold! https://t.co/IpUbAiSzkO
A couple of weeks ago, Carly from @CityofTreesMcr spoke at our land webinar. Today, a group of us went to support one of their tree planting days in Bolton
A great way to engage churches in community tree planting, see if they have an event near you- https://t.co/g8iiVXCxzr

On Saturday, at Diocesan Synod, Environment Working Group members gave a presentation

The acknowledgement of just how missional eco work is!
@ManDioEco Talking about Missions, we’ve found working with Eco groups to be absolutely brilliant…..the tree is such a wealth of diverse activity stemming from green hubs and they are so accessible to such diverse groups and the community 🩵 So much shared interest 🌿
