We believe we have a responsibility to care for our environment. To hear more about our values in this area, you can listen to a series of talks entitled "Environmental Stewardship" given by our Senior Pastor Jason Clark in 2007
As a church community this year we are encouraging everyone to follow the 10:10 campaign 10:10 link
So we are together in our purposes here, and able to support, encourage and celebrate with each other - let us know you are taking part by signing up on the link below. Together we can do this and make a significant impact on our environment!
VCS 10:10 sign up here
Here are some of our initiatives as a church community:
- Recycling: We use recycled products as much as we can or have them supplied from sustainable sources, we recycle our own waste and encourage our church community to join us in this
- Re-use & Re-cyle – Visit our new VCS post-it board. This area gives opportunities to pass on anything you no longer need or use. Furniture, games, cars, or advertise flat shares/ house mates wanted / lifts needed etc.
- BYO MUGS – To cut down on the need for using disposable cups on a Sunday morning, we encourage people to bring their own mugs to church…many people do!
- Fair trade - We aim to promote fair trade on all our consumables in our church centre and at our Sunday services
- Cycling / car pooling – We encourage people to travel together or cycle instead of driving…..
