It’s time for the 2013 National Preach-In on Global Warming, Interfaith Power & Light’s biggest event of the year. On the weekend before Valentine’s Day, thousands of clergy, lay leaders, and other people of faith from all over the country will speak of their abiding love for God’s Creation. Sign up now to join us, and to receive your kit through the mail.
The 2013 Preach-In will also focus on how climate disruption is affecting people worldwide, from East Coast residents battered by Superstorm Sandy to Midwestern farmers besieged by drought to people on the island of Kirabati whose homeland is literally sinking into the Pacific Ocean due to rising seas. The feature film is The Hungry Tide, an award-winning 53-minute documentary showing how people in Kirabati are coping as global warming changes a way of life they’ve known for thousands of years. Sign up now for DVD, Valentine postcards to President Obama, and other resources that will help your congregation take a stand for vulnerable people at home and abroad.
As you can see, the new Preach-In website is more interactive than ever. You can list your events on a map, and see what others are doing.
So sign up and order your materials now. As the Preach-In gets closer, we’ll send you reminders as well as links to free resources to help you prepare sermons, reflections, devotionals, discussions, children’s activities, and more. We look forward to your involvement in the 2013 National Preach-In on Global Warming.
