We are a group of members and friends of the St Luke’s congregation who have a particular passion for God’s Earth and our role in caring for creation.
We host a recycling center for things that don't go in the yellow bin, and have collated information on recycling non-standard items in the Geelong Region.
We also host a monthly Repair Cafe from St Luke's.
Our meetings include:
- bible study from an eco-theology perspective
- learning about current environmental issues and locally based responses to them
- planning activities to educate the wider community and empower them to take action on environmental issues, for example: tree planting on National Tree Day, litter surveys on Earth Day, Clean up Australia Day.
We also make recommendations to church council on ways St. Luke’s can become more sustainable as a church.
