Congratulations on winning a Bronze Award

We have just heard that we have been awarded the Eco Church  Bronze Award from A Rocha UK.

“Well done to everyone at St Paul’s Church, Grange-over-Sands for your incredible efforts…  Your church has achieved an Eco Church Bronze Award.

I know how hard you worked. Every minute you invested was worth it. On behalf of the natural world you’ve restored and the climate you’ve protected, thank you.”

We completed an online Eco Survey about how we as a church are caring for God’s earth in different areas of our life and work.  The answers provided collect points towards an Eco Church Award – the more your church does, the more points you get!

The survey involves five key areas of church life:

  • Worship and teaching
  • Management of church buildings
  • Management of church land
  • Community and global engagement
  • Lifestyle

We  have started our journey. We now need to work towards the next level for a silver award!
