FRC Schenectady Greening Team Mission Statement

God loves the world. We believe this love is revealed within Scripture and most fully in the peace and justice of Jesus Christ, our sure foundation. In shared loyalty to Jesus and in step with his Spirit we desire to be a church family where this peace and justice between God, people, and all of creation is sought and celebrated.

Blessed with the peace of Christ, we are inspired to awareness and enjoyment of the wonders of God's cosmos, especially this beloved planet. Required to do justice, we are charged to protect, restore, and enhance the ecosystem, within which human and other kind live, and upon which all life depends.

Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves as individuals and as a community of faith, to actions both personal and congregational, local and global, which celebrate, heal, and sustain the earth and all its creatures to God's glory.
