SUMMARY:Politics: Love in Public - Session 4
DESCRIPTION:  \nRegister to Attend \n  \n\n\n\nSUBHEADING\n\n“Never discuss politics or religion in polite company” is the conventional wisdom\, often attributed to Mark Twain. G.K. Chsterton counters with\, “I never discuss anything else except politics and religion. There is nothing else to discuss.” \nSo which is it? Well\, we’re gather to see what our faith has to say about political engagement\, so I guess we’re going with Chesterton. Join us on Wednesdays from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm in June to explore ways we can follow Jesus into our shared work of living together.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nHosted by NT-NL Public Witness Team

SUMMARY:Cool Congregations Cohort - Lutherans Restoring Creation
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGOALS\nFaith communities of all faith/spiritual traditions are invited to join the Cool Congregations Cohort in 2025. The cohort will meet monthly online throughout the year\, and the facilitator will work with you to accomplish two goals during the course of the year: \n1. develop a plan to reduce your faith community’s carbon footprint by 50% by 2030 (in line with goals sent by climate scientists) and \n2. incorporate care for the earth into all aspects of your faith community’s life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE PROCESS\nThe cohort facilitator\, who has decades of experience in “greening” of faith communities\, will give individualized attention to the 10 faith communities that participate\, helping them to discover ways to both reduce their carbon footprint and renew their faith community’s commitment to care for the earth. Participating faith communities will also learn from each other’s experiences and support each other throughout the program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nHOSTS\nThis program is organized by the Interfaith Environmental Network of Houston\, a Houston affiliate of the Texas chapter of Interfaith Power & Light\, but is open to any faith community that would like to participate\, and is not restricted to Houston- nor Texas-based faith communities. Contact the facilitator\, Lisa Brenskelle\, at gcs.lrc@gmail.com\, with any questions. \nREGISTER YOUR COMMUNITY \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
