Club has released “Faith in Action: Communities of Faith Bring Hope for the Planet.”
This is the organization’s first-ever national report on the environmental engagement of communities of faith. Highlighting one exceptional faith-based environmental initiative from each of the fifty states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, “Faith in Action” demonstrates the breadth, depth and diversity of spiritually motivated grassroots efforts to protect the planet. In the United States, 67 percent of Americans say they care about the environment because it is “God’s creation.” Faith groups highlighted in this report lead the way in crafting creative and promising solutions to tremendous environmental challenges. Northland Church is honored to be included in this report. Click here to view the report now.
