Saturday 19th September at St Oswald’s, Maybole 10am – 2.30 pm
Join the Diocesan Environment Group for an opportunity in the Season of Creation to help make our churches more eco-friendly. Whether you’re a green thumb or just curious, this event is all about caring for creation and sharing ideas on how to live more sustainably together. Let’s get inspired, hearing what other churches are doing and think about how we can make a positive impact on our community and planet.
We will be focusing on biodiversity, church and community gardens. Listening to local and church eco-groups sharing their journey and how we might do something in our own contexts.
