Care for Creation

We care for creation to honor our Creator

Christ Lutheran Church's Care for Creation team meets on the second Thursdays of the month at 7:00PM and welcomes new members. The group looks for ways to make a difference in our care of the world starting here at our church home. We seek ways to use less energy at church, recycle more instead of adding to a landfill, and inform members of ways to protect and preserve our environment. Our church recycles cans, paper, plastics, and print cartridges.

Church is also an ongoing collection point for Kokomo Urban Outreach's call for the following items to help them distribute food and soap to community members in need. Leave them in the specially marked containers in Fellowship Hall.

•  plastic grocery bags (because of needing a consistent size, please only grocery bags)

•  plastic water bottles with caps, emptied, rinsed well and dry on the outside

Future events

During Lent--Feb. 17 through Apr. 3--Care for Creation will explain and encourage members to go on a low carbon "diet."

We will celebrate Earth Day on April 18th in liturgy during our service and in after-church activities including a brunch and the short movie The Story of Stuff.
