Your yard can be a little haven for your four- and six-legged neighbors. And now imagine if your whole neighborhood turned into a piece of chirping, singing, fluttering, healthy Paradise! There is only one thing you need to do: talk about it.

And why not start at your church.

As A Roja suggests, you can start by talking to others about how to “green your church”: what if you all cut out single use plastics, cut down on meat consumption, get a green audit done on your building? Or explore what others think and feel: start a prayer practice that focuses on more than people, be intentional about cultivating wonder, show a child at Sunday school your favorite part of nature, etc.
