Creation Care at Pender UMC
A Ministry of Healing, Stewardship, and Hope

As United Methodists, we believe that caring for God’s creation is a sacred responsibility. Scripture calls us to be stewards of the earth (Genesis 1:26-31), not only enjoying its beauty but protecting it for future generations. Creation care is more than an environmental action—it’s an act of discipleship and a reflection of our love for God and neighbor.

On Earth Day, April 22, 2025, Pender UMC embraced this calling with a Community Cleanup, taking the first of many steps toward a more sustainable and faithful relationship with God’s world. Volunteers of all ages came together to clean up public spaces, care for the environment, and celebrate the gift of creation.

This is just the beginning. Explore how you can get involved in Pender’s ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and learn how our church is living out its mission by loving all of creation.
