CREATION CARE

Welcome to the Creation Care Ministry of St. Michael’s Episcopal Church.

We promote strategies and activities within our congregation and in partnership with Diocesan, parish, and community groups to raise awareness of environmental harm, promote stewardship of God’s creation, and enhance clean energy, air, and water for all. Join us by getting on our mailing list.
