Acting from our faith convictions, we join our voices with others in the region who call for responsible public policies to protect the Earth and its inhabitants.
Changes in public policies are needed to undo the harm that has been done to our environment, specifically the Chesapeake Bay, and to work towards a more sustainable future.
People of faith have a special calling to bring their insights and values into the public forum. IPC is here to help you bring your voice to bear in advocating for stewardship of God’s Creation.
