Earth Care is an initiative of PVUMC to model environmental sustainability in churches. We recognize our call as Christians to be stewards of God’s creation. And we resolve to provide opportunities for Christians and people of all faiths to experience God through nature with a deeper reverence for what He has given us.

Earth Care is not just about sustainable churches. It strives to provide opportunities for PVUMC members and our neighbors to become better educated about how to protect our natural world. We offer speaker series, book studies and a range of special projects to engage families and community members of all ages.

Multiple project-oriented groups, permanent and short-term, focus on:

• Local recycling progams
• Environmental education
• Sustainable practices
• Nature inspired-spirituality
• Environmental justice

Our leadership team, which also includes youth participants, is guiding Earth Care toward becoming a leader in the community and a green church model.

We welcome other churches, community groups and sustainable missions organizations to contact us about working together.
