ECO CHURCH

Eco Church is an award scheme for churches who take the environment seriously and want to demonstrate that the gospel is good news for God’s earth.  There are currently over 25 Eco Church awarded churches in the diocese of Liverpool and more than 70 churches have already registered.

St Michael-in-the-Hamlet Church has recently received an Eco Church Bronze award.

An Eco Church is based on a self-assessment of how the church is “caring for God’s earth in different areas of their life and work”.

Eco Church works through 5 key areas of church life:

• Worship and teaching

• Management of church buildings

• Management of church land

• Community and global engagement

• Lifestyle
