Earth Care Congregation
Defending and Restoring
God's Creation
Valley Community Presbyterian Church is a certified Earth Care Congregation, practicing stewardship of the land through worship, education, facilities, and outreach.
What does it mean to be an Earth Care Congregation?
From the PC(USA) website, "Our faith urges us to strive for eco-justice: defending and healing creation while working to assure justice for all of creation and the human beings who live in it. This call is rooted in the human vocation of “tilling and keeping” the garden from Genesis 2:15, as well as Christ’s charge to work with and for the most vulnerable.
Because of their love for Christ who is firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1:15), churches are challenged to live in a manner consistent with God’s call to not only care for creation, but commune with creation."
To fully embody our principles, we must show care and dedication to God's creation.
