Christian Leadership for a Climate Changed World Workshop

March 9th-12th, 2026 | Camp Friedenswald
In the face of the looming climate disaster, many of us do little about it. We may feel anger, anxiety, or nothing at all. We may feel powerless in this global societal crisis, keeping us from engaging. How can churches help people engage in the climate crisis? How can Christians be work side-by-side with scientists to address the challenges before us?
Pastors and other church leaders are unique in bringing together social, emotional and spiritual roles. These trainings help empower pastors and other leaders to effectively engage science, broaden climate action in a congregation or ministry setting, and move people from denial and inaction to congregational action and political advocacy.
Creation Justice Ministries is looking for church teams who want to transform their faith communities into active climate action leaders by equipping and inspiring their congregations to adopt meaningful and effective practices for creation justice. The Transformative Leadership Program is a free opportunity for congregational teams to participate in a 3-day, in-person workshop that combines climate communication, practical theological approaches, and community organizing tools to equip leaders in shaping their church’s relationship to creation justice.
