Faith & Environment

We have all been on vacations, weekend getaways or trips to our summer homes where we are one with nature; skiing in the mountains, boating or fishing at our favorite lake, hiking through the woods or lying down in the middle of a field stargazing. There is an awe inspiring sense of God's presence, a feeling of peace that comes over us and revitalizes our soul. When we return, we tend to forget the beauty and serenity that God has created for us as we transition back into our daily grind. The Faith & Environment group was created to help keep us mindful that our lifestyles throughout the year are more in harmony, when in accordance with God's plan of being stewards of our beautiful home.  

The Faith & Environment group is on a mission to bring harmony to all of our lives through green lifestyle changes.  We welcome you to join us, contribute ideas and grow spiritually.
