This Sunday with Rev. Lisa: 
 
"The Hero's Journey: Mother Earth & I"
 
Sunday, April 22nd at 11:00 a.m.
 
 
 
Celebrate Earth Day Every Day!
 
Together we can protect the climate and our future.
 
You can:
 

**  Learn about and educate others on reducing emissions through improved energy efficiency and switching to low or non-carbon energy sources

 

**  Inspire members in your communities to Go Green. Join the effort to conserve energy, go solar, plant trees, grow organic gardens, capture rainwater and recycle.

 

**  Write letters to local and national leaders calling on them to act boldly for climate advocacy. And, speak up about the ways climate change is affecting your own community and city.

 

One personal action can make a huge difference . . .
 
One of the easiest personal actions that can decrease our carbon footprint is reducing food waste, which is a major source of greenhouse gases. Here are a few easy ways to improve your food lifestyle, and protect the climate and our beautiful Earth:
  • Beef's carbon footprint is 2x that of pork and 4x that of chicken - choose wisely
  • Use meat for flavor rather than for the whole meal
  • Consider observing "meatless Monday"
  • Reduce food waste by planning ahead & storing food correctly
  • Use smaller plates - you will probably eat less & be healthier too
  • Donate leftover food from events

"The Power of As" with Rev. Sydney
 
We all desire to know and really feel connected, loved, guided and blessed. What is the bridge that we need to cross in order to move from mental theory to passionate experience?
