The climate crisis has arrived. Faith communities must not only react, but also prepare. Over the last decade, hurricanes have intensified, wildfires have burnt stronger, and heat waves have baked our cities. These events can only be expected to get worse in the next decades. Most of our faith communities are not ready for these climate-driven disasters. Yet, the communities who will be most threatened by climate change also have an opportunity to play a pivotal role in building resilience in their towns and cities. Whether a faith community has a large facility, land, social capital, or something else, those assets can be channeled into building climate resilience in preparation for the physical and spiritual storms of the climate crisis. Each week in this six-week weekly exploration considers resilience from a different angle (see topic list below), to achieve a broad understanding of the topic. Join us to consider how your faith community can become a force for climate resilience. Contact Lisa Brenskelle at [email protected] for more information. Faithful Resilience prepares faith communities to become resilient in the face of the physical & spiritual storms of the climate crisis.
