At Synod 2018 we committed to eliminating single-use plastics in our churches. To assist in these efforts the diocesan Vision Implementation Team for Engaging God's World has recently produced a new resource guide to help parishes get started in reducing their ecological footprint by phasing out the use of disposable plastics by 2023. This guide is currently available here and will soon be available in a print version for download. A limited number of guides will also be distributed to parishes in an upcoming parish mailing.
