Creation Care Upcoming Events

A person is holding a small plant in their hands.

As Christians, we believe all of creation was called into being by the very word of God. The Bible reveals that our Creator calls us to be stewards of creation and to love our neighbors. Inspired by the unsurpassed love God showed us by sending Jesus Christ, God’s only son, to redeem us through his death and resurrection, we respond to God's commands. The Episcopal Diocese of Alabama and the All Saints Creation Care Committee is committed to environmental education, advocacy, and action for our neighbors and all of creation.

Here are some great opportunities to get involved!

The All Saints Care/Support Team Ministry is a group of volunteers who work together to provide practical, emotional, and spiritual care for those facing health challenges. Rev. Malcolm Marler (husband of Rev. Mary Bea Sullivan) will lead a special training during the Sunday School hour on April 6, in the Great Hall entitled: “Working Together to Share the Care: How to Develop a Support Team for Someone Who Needs or Wants It.” Everyone is welcome—whether you’re looking for ways to help or might need support yourself. Come learn how we can share the care together!
