Creation Care

Helping our congregation & community become more aware in how we can better care for God's creation.

Taking Care of God's Creation

"...we recognize the responsibility of the Church toward lifestyle and systemic changes in society that will promote a more ecologically just world and a better quality of life for all creation."
– UMC Social Principle, "The Natural World."

"We love God’s creation, practice being stewards of the earth, and teach environmental justice"
-Arvada United Methodist Church Core Value, "Courageous Outreach"

CCT Mission & Vision

Mission

The Creation Care Team (CCT) at AUMC fosters awareness around critical environmental issues by providing information via a number of channels that explore how individuals can positively improve our ecological impact. We ALL have a large responsibility for taking care of the earth and it’s many living systems/beings.

Vision

Through communication, direct actions and worship we seek to be a community that identifies itself, and is identified by others as a “creation care congregation.” The CCT strives to address factors impacting climate change and our environment. We know this especially and disproportionately impacts disadvantaged persons.
We have a common working goal to accomplish our vision of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
