Who We Are
Care of Creation is an environmental organization formed in 2005 to bring together
two important themes: Love for God’s People, and love for God’s world.
We are also a missions organization: We believe that environmental problems are sin problems, and we are convinced that the Church of Jesus Christ is the world’s best hope for dealing with this crisis.
Simply stated, we believe that missions and care for God’s creation belong together.
In summary, we are evangelical and environmental, and, yes, we think we can be both.
More than that, we think we have to be both…
Our goal is to mobilize the Church to respond to environmental challenges with and through the love of God – and that’s what evangelism and evangelicalism is – or should be – all about..
- In fact, in terms of theology we believe that to be truly evangelical – believing that Jesus Christ has come with ‘good news’ for the human race and for all creation – we have to be concerned about the environment.
- And in terms of reality – what is really going on in the world right now – we know that millions of people are suffering from this environmental crisis; we simply cannot love people without caring for God’s creation.
We seek to…
- Love God by worshiping him in all we do;
- Love God’s People by sharing the good news we have in Jesus Christ, and by strengthening and empowering local congregations to join in…
- Love God’s World by working with and through his people to care for and heal God’s hurting creation.
