The Church of the Brethren’s Office of Peacebuilding and Policy along with the Brethren Creation Care Network will be hosting a webinar about watershed stewardship on March 30 at 7 p.m. (Eastern time). We will be featuring special guest David Warners from Calvin University and also inviting interactive participation by Church of the Brethren attendees.
Webinar description:
An interactive webinar about watershed stewardship in your community! Come hear David Warners, biology professor at Calvin University and director of Plaster Creek Stewards, present about faith-based reconciliation ecology and the work Calvin University has been doing in watershed restoration.
Also be ready to engage in dialogue about the intersection of Brethren faith and the environment, which will be led by members of the Brethren Creation Care Network!
In the meantime, we encourage you to think about how your own congregation cares for its local waters and how to share those stories with us during the event. This webinar will be an opportunity for reflection, idea sharing, and forming partnerships to take action now and in the future.
