Let's Talk Faith and Climate Webinar

October 1, 2018
Office of Government Relations

Be an Episcopal Christian witness to the experiences and impacts of climate change on health, livelihoods, and communities, as we look for guidance and solutions.

The Episcopal Church has learned from ecoAmerica’s Blessed Tomorrow Ambassadors Program, to support faith institutions and faith leaders with a training on the links between climate, faith and humanity, the spectrum of solutions, speaking effectively on the topic, and opportunities to act and advocate.

Completing the “Let’s Talk Faith and Climate” webinar will equip Episcopalians with knowledge, hands-on experience, and resources to speak and act confidently on climate change and solutions. With this training, and a cohort of like-minded leaders, faith leaders will be able to engage their congregations and congregants, colleagues, the public, and policymakers to inspire climate solutions that help protect our families and communities now, and ensure a prosperous, just, and secure future.
