What makes our work so unique is that it is carried out from a place of faith.  It is imperative that, as we come together to restore the Bay, our members and partners do so in a manner that continually reminds us of the blessings and spiritual gifts our shared waters give to us.  As such, IPC has created several resources to help congregations maintain this spiritual focus as we carry out our work.
