What is all the hype about creation care? What does climate justice mean anyway? And why does the church care? To find out, join your neighbors across the Corridor District for a study of “Climate Justice: A Call To Hope And Action” being conducted in several churches throughout the fall. See the list below for locations, times, and formats that fit your needs. View each church’s contact information. Order the book from United Women in Faith or get the Kindle version from Amazon.
