We envision a world where people of diverse faith & spiritually work together towards a healthy, just, sustainable future for all. Our mission is to nurture environmental leadership by equipping people & communities with resources to take climate action.
From ashes to resurrection, Lent reminds us that renewal is possible...even when the future feels uncertain. Our new resource, Turning Together, invites communities to face climate realities with honesty, courage & hope

Our friend Tom Stoval at Bread of Life Presbyterian Church in Dubuque created an awesome weekly set of climate care tips you can use in your weekly bulletin, emails and so on. Most can be used as-is with no modification. Download the list at docs.google.com/docu...

We've come to the end of our climate journey through the seasons of Advent, Christmas & now Epiphany! The star led the magi on a long journey. Creation still points toward God’s presence & promise. What might it mean to let wonder, not fear, guide your climate faith this year?
January 6, 2026 at 1:00 PM
The magi brought gifts in response to what they had seen. As Epiphany approaches, what gift—time, money, skills, or attention—might you offer for the healing of the earth? #adventcalendar #climateaction
January 5, 2026 at 1:00 PM
Epiphany is near—a season of light and revelation. Where have you noticed “light in the darkness” lately, especially connected to the earth or your faith community? Pause long enough to name it.

Meals shape more than our bodies; they shape the planet. How might a simpler, more plant-forward meal today be an act of hospitality toward both creation and future generations?

Many of us care deeply about local places like parks, waterways, or our neighborhoods. Have you ever shared that concern with an elected official or community leader? Advocacy is one way love becomes public. #adventcalendar #climateaction

New Year’s Day invites blessing. What would it mean to pray not only for ourselves and our loved ones, but also for rivers, forests, fields, and skies? Peace for people and planet belong together.

Before rushing into a new year, pause to notice moments of healing or renewal you witnessed in creation this year. Gratitude can ground us for the long work of caring for our shared home.

Winter teaches us that not all growth is visible. Where do you see quiet resilience in the natural world right now—and how might that patience shape the way you think about climate hope?
