Climate Church Crisis Map
The Climate-Church Map offers a depiction of how communities of faith across the United States are being affected by climate change, particularly sea level rise. Look up your congregation on this Sea Level Rise Map. Reflect on your findings using the questions below. To see more Bible studies and sermon starters, download the 2022 Earth Day Sunday Resource.
Reflection questions:
Will your congregation be directly affected by sea level rise or storm surge? How near is your congregation to wildfires?
If your congregation is at risk from flooding and fires, how are you preparing both physically and spiritually?
If your congregation is not at risk from flooding and fires, how close are you to communities that may be affected? How can you practice hospitality for those who are affected? How can you partner and prepare with those churches before a disaster happens?
