Creation stewardship

In the second of our two harvest services on 4th October we were joined by Laura-Lee Lovering, our BMS contact based in the Peruvian Amazon. Laura spoke to us about creation stewardship in the context of her work with local farmers and drew out some practical lessons for us.

Creation Care

On 27th September we welcomed Philip Nalpanis from the Christian Environmental organisation A’Rocha. Philip spoke first about the Biblical mandate for creation care, and then about what we can do practically. The recording starts with a reading from Colossians 1 v15 onwards.

Mission shaped church
