Congregations
practice sustainability and environmental stewardship appropriate
to their contexts. Each congregation appoints a liaison to
MCCN to help information flow between the congregation and
the network.
Our goal is 100 congregations actively caring
for creation in the ways best suited to their context, each with a liaison in place.
Right now we're up to 57 congregations, 57 shades of green.
Who are the 100 Shades Congregations? See a list.

that can help you and your congregation evaluate your stewardship
of the earth. It can help you find areas you can get excited
about working on. We've also prepared a one-page discussion guide
for each category on the score sheet. Score
