Quadrennial Priorities
2016-2020
Learning and Leading Using
Principles of God's Word
Human Rights:
We believe every child has the right to a quality education.
Hunger and Poverty: As women of faith, we are
called to feed the poor, shelter the homeless and protect our children.
Health and Wellness: To focus on women's
health and heart disease.
Diversity and
Inclusiveness: We understand in an increasingly diverse and global
world, the gospel of Christ is our example for embracing differences in
wealth, in ethnicity, in culture and in race.
Connecting Faiths for Climate
Action
June 2; 7:00-8:30 pm via Zoom
Dive deeper into how members of sustainability teams can: 1) talk to
others about climate change, 2) educate their faith community, 3)
recruit for their green team, 4) advocate for better climate policy, 5)
recycle and deal with plastics, or 6) work for environmental justice.
We begin with a short, uplifting video talk by Katharine
Hayhoe, author of "Saving Us: A Climate Scientist’s Case for Hope and
Healing in a Divided World". We will then break into 6 groups, starting
with a short introduction by an expert in each of the six areas,
followed by a half hour of conversation about our various efforts. Come
and get new ideas for your team. Members of the Citizens’ Climate Lobby
and the Wisconsin Creation Care Ambassadors are working together to host
this free, virtual event. Invite friends and team members. Please
register by May 30 by emailing Trudi Jenny: trudi.jenny@gmail.com.
