Eco Church

Practical Tips for Respecting and Protecting God's Creation

• REJOICE - in all that God has given us
• REFUSE - to believe the adverts
• REDUCE - buy less, travel less, worry less
• REUSE- avoid single-use items
• REPAIR - don't bin it, fix it
• RENT, BORROW AND SHARE - ownership is overrated
• RECYCLE - as a last resort

From Green Christian

I am the vine, you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

John 15:5

Christ Church Chineham is taking part in the Eco Church Project which began in 2016 as an ecumenical initiative organised by A Rocha UK, a Christian environmental group concerned with caring for God’s earth.

We have now achieved Silver status and are working towards a Gold Award – currently there are only 15 holders at this level nationally. There are five areas covered by the project: Worship and Teaching, Buildings, Land, Lifestyle and Community.  If you would like to be involved or need further information, please contact Jean Wilde c/o the church office.
