We are an Earth Care Congregation
"… God's work in creation is too wonderful, too ancient, too beautiful, too good to be desecrated … Restoring creation is God's own work in our time … "
Presbyterian Mission Agency
What is an Earth Care Congregation?
An “Earth Care” Congregation is a designation within the Presbyterian Church (USA) that helps people know we care about the Earth and are willing to do things – sometimes very basic things to practice care and educate others. An Earth Care Congregation commits to the “Earth Care Pledge,” accomplishing a number of actions in four categories: worship, education, facilities and outreach.
Join us in this vital, meaningful work for God’s creation.

Our Commitment to Earth Care
FPC joined the program in 2015. Some initiatives include recycling, composting, changing the lighting in our building to reduce our carbon footprint, and changing our yard to a Peace Garden with a design that will reduce water usage.
PC (USA) Environmental Ministries exists to equip and connect churches and presbyteries for Earth Care ministries
