💚🌳 NRPE has been busy this Fall working with organizational partners and local congregations in PA, NC, & FL to plant trees on their sacred grounds.
One of our many take-aways? Trees are a blessing! From God - for community, for health, for wildlife, for climate, and for our faith.

Tomorrow is National Public Lands Day!
Public lands are cherished spaces of refuge for all of God's sacred creation, both human & non-human. They provide habitat & home to diverse wildlife, protection for critical water resources, & community access to God's creation in it's most natural form.
