PARISH ENVIRONMENTAL ACTION GROUP
The Immaculate Conception Church,
following the lead of Pope Francis in
Laudate Si, has an active, growing
group of parishioners who wish to
change the way our corner of the
catholic faith deals with the ever
rising, climate temperature of our
current times. We meet regularly to
discuss what we can do to make a
difference and then try to put our
plans into action. The time is now!
We would really love to have more
members in our diverse group to
carry on our work into the future.
