Introducing the Social Action section

Caring for creation, Social Action and the Built and Natural Environment are a core part of the Church's mission, along with resources to support environmental projects.

Below you will find information to enable and train christians to engage with these matters with a sense of priority, concern, prayerfulness and practical application to see things change.
