HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT TEARFUND IRELAND’S GREAT NEW ENERGY DEAL FOR CHURCHES?Want to reduce your energy bill?

Want to help Tearfund Ireland protect those most vulnerable to climate change?

WE BELIEVE IN CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT…The earth and all that is in it was created by God and he has entrusted its care to us. Therefore, we have a responsibility to steward the earth’s resources (see Psalms 24:1; 115:16).

Sustainability and the Global South

We all feel the effects of changing weather patterns, but communities in the global south are worst-affected by the impacts of the changing climate. Through our work in the developing world, we’ve seen how changing weather patterns affect those who are least resilient.

By taking even small steps in our lifestyle choices, we can play a part in reducing the effects of climate change and help create a more sustainable world. Tearfund Ireland have identified a way we can help your church create a more sustainable future.
