Did you know… We have been an “Earth Care” Congregation for 12 years!
We were certified February 3, 2012 and recertify each year.
It is a lengthy application; Charlanne Brown needs church members to keep her informed by text (302-685-2960) or email (cbdelaware@gmail.com) of the many things we do as a congregation to cherish, protect & restore this Earth.
Every committee, kindly let Charlanne know when you do things such as:
- Conserve water or electricity in our church and at home
- Improve recycling
- Attend classes on God’s creation
- Use recycled items in your programs
- Encourage others outside of our church to take care of the environment, etc.
God gave us this beautiful & wondrous Earth and in the Book of Genesis, “instructed us to take care of it”.
Just a reminder to bring your plastic bags (clean & dry) to any Publix to their outside recycling bins: including bread bags, shopping bags, dry cleaning bags, produce bags, potato bags, water conditioner salt bags, wood pellets bags, etc.
Bring your Styrofoam to any Publix outside recycling bin. Clean and dry Styrofoam cups, plates, packaging of meat and vegetables & fruit, and especially large pieces of Styrofoam packaging. if too large for the bin, they accept it at the customer service desk.
Our Church has Durable Medical Equipment available to borrow at no cost, (just sign a waiver); wheelchairs, walkers, shower chairs with and without arms or backs, crutches, canes including 4 prong canes, ice machine for after surgery, sturdy cushioned medical boot for after foot surgery, knee brace, etc. See Sheri if you have a need for any of these.
Florida Arbor Day was Jan. 21, 2022 and National Arbor day is April 29, 2022.
A Meyer lemon tree will be given away on April 24 in honor of both days.
