Earth Stewardship Sunday 2007

The 2007 Earth Sunday materials are now available from the NCCC. The theme for this year's Earth Day Sunday, which will be celebrated on April 22, is "The Food that Sustains Us."

Introduction

Our Daily Bread: Harvesters of Hope and Gardeners of Eden explores the need to put the Spirit of God back into the life-giving acts of producing and consuming food. The resource acknowledges the brokenness of current policies, practices, and habits, and lifts up opportunities for the redemption of all of creation through more mindful choices.

Includes background information, sermon starters, ideas for youth and adult study, suggestions for individual and congregational action, sample liturgies, and a bulletin insert. New to this year's Earth Day Sunday resource is an opportunity to engage in direct action with your elected officials to ask for a farm bill that reflects faith-based principles for a more just farm and food policy.
