Faith Climate Action Week 2022 (April 22 – May 1)
Faith Climate Action Week is ten days in April during Earth Month when IPL congregations focus on how we can all take action to protect our climate. The 2022 theme is Sacred Trust: Our Children’s Right to a Livable Future.

Our children and grandchildren will bear the brunt of climate change, and their voices have an outsized impact in the halls of power when they speak about how climate change affects their future. We invite you to lean into this sobering and hopeful paradox and work alongside the youth in your congregation or community to speak up for their rights to a stable climate. Make it a focus of your Earth Day worship services and be part of the solution with the suggested actions in the 2022 organizer’s kit below:
In the kit:
- Organizer’s instructions
- Sacred Trust Guide – learn about our children’s moral and legal rights to a livable climate, intergenerational climate justice, plus suggestions for action for congregations and individuals
- Youth and Children Blessing Ceremony
- Postcards to collect Voter pledges and a pre-addressed envelope to mail them to IPL
- Climate change fact sheet
- Links to the nationwide Climate Prayer, with more online worship resources
- Option: Screen “Youth v Gov”, a climate change “superhero” movie, by streaming for your in-person audience or over Zoom during the window April 11 – May 1. DVDS also available through IPL, includes screening rights and screening guide with discussion questions. Click here to access the film page.
