Consider the Lilies Workshop
At the last Synod a motion was passed that each parish find actionable ways to improve their stewardship of creation.
Consider the Lilies Collective is aimed at helping people in the church find practical ways to care for creation together. The morning will feature two practical workshops with local experts and a time for prayer and worship. Registration is $10 and includes snacks and refreshments.

Consider the Lilies Collective
March 15, 2025 – 9:00 am – 12:00 pm
Location: All Saint’s Anglican Church/st. benedict’s table
521 Broadway Ave
While the full conference goes on the road, we want to continue equipping and connecting you in your work to care for creation with your church.
Join the A Rocha community for a morning of practical workshops and worship engaging our head, hands, and hearts for creation care. Snacks and coffee/tea will be provided.
Session #1: Talking Climate & Creation Care at your Church
with Sandy Plett & Aaron Thiessen
How do you talk about creation care and climate change in a church context? How might we talk to the children and youth in our communities about this topic? What are some theological considerations? This workshop will tackle these questions about engaging minds on creation care.
Session #2: Taking Action with Hands-on Projects
with Beth Downey Sawatsky, Nora Hogman, Peter Sawatsky, & Benjamin Verkerk
Sometimes the easiest way to start caring for creation is to do a hands-on project. This workshop will bring together various voices in the church to share about projects they have done, from community gardens, to green building techniques, to solar panels, and more.
Session #3: Worship and Liturgy
with saint benedict’s table
Join the A Rocha Manitoba team for a short prayer & worship service demonstrating how you can incorporate care of creation into the rhythms and practices of your church community.
