New resource aims to engage parishes in social and ecological justice

Assembly 2023 delegates are bringing home a new tool to help their communities, parishes and congregations discern and engage in social and ecological justice issues.

[The] 15-page document [is titled] Parish Engagement Resource for Social and Ecological Justice: Let there be greening!, 

“One of the ways that our full communion relationship is brought to life is through our shared efforts to bring God’s justice and compassion into our world,” Weston said.

The resource is available online and includes prayers, reflections and worship practices... The introduction also features a list of principles—for example, that social and ecological justice are “integral parts of God’s mission”; that local wisdom is essential and that “listening and building relationships are key elements in following God’s call to seek justice.”
