Join the First Parish Climate Action Team

Stop by our table at Coffee Hour this Sunday, December 17th

In 2004-06, First Parish went through an internal process to be designated a Green Sanctuary Congregation. The goal was to make every aspect of congregational life as sustainable and environmentally responsible as possible. We asked ourselves what did we need to do to live our 7th Principle, to “affirm and promote respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.”

We then created plans to increase building sustainability, improve congregational practices, and create relationships with the wider community.
