Creation Care
The 5th Mark of Anglican Mission is to strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, and sustain and renew the life of the earth. It emphasizes the importance of caring for God's creation as an integral part of Christian mission, recognizing the interconnectedness of faith and the environment. This mark calls for action to address issues like climate change and biodiversity loss, and to promote sustainable practices.
We have a small team supporting churches with their response to the 5th Mark of Mission including their Eco Church and carbon net zero journeys.
