What Creation Care is All About
Caring for God’s creation is a gospel issue within the Lordship of Christ. We help people of faith to connect their theological teachings and belief systems with positive environmental actions. This way faith-based organizations can demonstrate their love for people by caring for God’s creation.
This we hope, will reinforce positive habits in faith-based institutions who constitute the largest social network in Ghana.

Our Objectives
- Empower faith-based leaders and members to understand and acknowledge the urgent action for creation care.
- Raise awareness of the importance of creation care in the faith-based institutions and networks and create an opportunity for members to learn about issues and actions that impact on the environment and health and how it relates to our faith.

We have the duty to care for God’s creation (God put man into the garden to dress and to keep it. Genesis 2:15). We have a duty to care for our fellow humans both now and the future. Caring for nature ensures that human life is preserved.
