Training, Worship, and Advocacy: Tools for Creation Care
Faith in Action: Blessed Tomorrow’s October Climate Newsletter
Free Climate Ambassador training on September 26 and an October Voting & Faith webinar are among the opportunities featured in Blessed Tomorrow’s October 2026 newsletter. The issue offers practical ways for congregations to connect worship, education, and public advocacy with care for creation.
For Lutherans across the Grand Canyon Synod, creation care is a response to God’s grace and an expression of love for our neighbors. As heat, wildfire smoke, and other climate impacts affect our communities, these resources can help congregations put that love into action.
Inside this issue:
Climate Ambassador training, September 26: Registration remains open for a free, live, interactive training with breakouts by faith tradition. Participants will receive resources, communication strategies, and practical steps for congregational and community action.
Voting & Faith webinar in October: Congregations can join One Home One Future to access this event and other opportunities connecting faith, civic participation, and climate advocacy. All houses of worship are welcome.
Creation care in worship and education: Read how Climate Ambassadors are engaging children at camp and bringing creation into worship through a litany. Rev. Carol Devine’s featured reflection, “Ask the Animals and They Will Teach You,” offers ways to connect the natural world with Scripture and spiritual life.
A postcard campaign to Congress: Request a free Election Earth postcard packet and gather your community to tell elected leaders why climate action matters.
Resources for organizational leadership: Explore climate training undertaken by United Methodist bishops and research from ecoAmerica and the American Psychological Association on incorporating climate action into organizational values and practices.
The issue also gathers further reading on faith, climate, and community well-being.
