Message from the new president:
Hello everyone,
At the beginning of December, I accepted the presidency of our beautiful network. It is important to remember that this network belongs to us and that it will be the sum of the efforts that we put into it. I have confidence in us, in our volunteers, our donors and in our 86 beautiful member churches who have made the choice to mobilize for an ecological spirituality, resulting in awareness and action. During this Advent period, Christians of many denominations are invited to take a step back from their practices, in order to prepare to welcome Christ, the rising sun over our world. Let us take this time to reflect on our ecological practices to see how Christ, the savior of the world, can guide us towards the salvation of our planet. To each and every one of you, a very Merry Christmas.
Let me introduce myself in a few words, I am a father, a doctor in practical theology and I divide my time between the profession of pastoral worker and that of spiritual care intervenor. It is my involvement in the network, in my local church (Saint-Eustache) that led me to get involved in the board of directors. The membership of the parish of Saint-Eustache dates back to 2013, but my involvement had started a few years earlier in the churches of Saint-Martin and Saint-Pie X in Laval.
Together, let's vibrate the ecological concern throughout the country.

Members of the board participate in bi-monthly meetings and contribute to

young so board members will have the chance to have a large impact in
defining the direction of the organization.

We are looking for board members with a diversity of experience and knowledge of both official languages. Interested candidates should be interested in environmental issues and have an understanding of the role the church plays in our modern society. Experience in administration as well as connections with diverse communities and denominations is highly valued.
Your donation to the Green Churches Network is essential in helping us to continue to further the greening of Churches all across Canada. We are a registered Canadian charity RN: 815609128RR0001.
