For the common good: Honoring the kinship of our neighbors and all creation  

This fall, through a partnership between Interfaith Power & Light (DC.MD.NoVA), Faith Alliance for Climate Solutions, and Virginia Interfaith Power & Light, pastors, rabbis, imams, and other faith leaders in congregations across the region will be raising up Creation care and climate justice as part of their addresses at weekly services and through other learning programs.

Faith communities across Virginia will be honoring our kinship with Creation, inviting our communities to pray, act, and vote for the common good. Through our shared climate, our shared need for clean air and water, and our shared democracy, we are bound together in this kinship with our neighbors and all of Creation.

Virginia congregations are invited to participate any time this fall.

Sign up here to commit your congregation to raising up climate on the above dates, or on any weekend this fall. You are invited to participate in a way that best fits your community. In addition to speaking from the pulpit, this could include inviting a guest speaker, showing a film, hosting a virtual coffee hour discussion, or organizing a workshop.

Upon completing this form, you will receive a download link for ready-to-use resources, including bulletin inserts and sermon helpers. These resources are designed to be used for either in-person or online gatherings.
