As a local church, we aim to take the practical steps necessary to realise the Fifth Mark of Mission, which is “to strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and to sustain the life of the earth”.
We all have a special responsibility to protect and care for the Earth so that human life and all God’s creatures may be sustained in harmony. Our planet is a precious gift from God. We are committed to being responsible stewards of the environment and integrating sustainable practices into every aspect of our church life including our worship, teaching, mission, pastoral, youth and children’s work, training,
administration, and charitable giving.
We are proud to be a Silver Eco Church.
MONTHLY 1ST SATURDAY @ 2PM
St Michael's Waddington Wild Church is not ‘normal church’ held outside. Rather it is a way of encountering God, the Divine Creator, through Creation. We meet outside in the Church grounds, and whenever a group of believers meet together the gathering is Church, and whenever we invite God into our midst Wild things can happen... even more so when we are gathered in nature. For more information, please contact Mel.
To be more eco friendly, we have changed our toilet roll, kitchen towel and hand towels to The Cheeky Panda.
