Having so many resources developed to use in green teams and churches is very exciting. If your team is ready to begin educating the rest of your congregation, check out Wake Up World, A Curriculum on the Climate Crisis for Faith Groups. Easily facilitated by anyone, this six-class series includes videos and instructions for facilitation and can be offered online or in person.
The authors, Dr. Bob and Anita Dygert-Gearheart, are available for consultation, if you have questions (541- 951-2897 or adygertgearheart@hotmail.com). The curriculum is free on the website www.wakeupworld.earth and in hard copy for the cost of printing from Cokesbury and Amazon.
Also available is the yearlong series, A Minute for Mother Earth, consisting of a short video (60-120 seconds) for each Sunday of the year. It follows the Wake Up World curriculum and is also available free of charge on the website for download and use in any way that helps educate others.
We offer these resources out of our concern for creation and our belief that educating our congregations is a critical part of building a grassroots of understanding and action. Hope through understanding is our motto.
