SUMMARY:Consider the Lilies Collective (Winnipeg\, MB)
DESCRIPTION:Consider the Lilies Collective\nMarch 7\, 2026 – 9:00 am – 12:00 pm\nLocation: Grace Bible Church\nThere are many churches doing the work of caring for creation\, and there are others who want to start\, but need some ideas and support. Consider the Lilies Collective works to equip and connect you in your work to care for creation with your church\, whether you are just starting out\, or have been doing the work for years. \nJoin 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. \nWorkshop #1: Can We Talk?: Having hard conversations about God’s earth\nwith Marta Bunnett Wiebe\, Peace & Advocacy Program Coordinator with Mennonite Central Committee Manitoba \nHave you ever found yourself in a conversation about environmental issues that felt more like an argument than a productive dialogue? Talking about climate change and biodiversity loss is one of the most important things we can do to address these big challenges\, but why do conversations about ecological issues routinely produce more heat than light even though we all rely on clean air\, water\, and soil? Caring for creation has never been more important. Biblically speaking\, humans are made to care for God’s world and at the same time we’re often overwhelmed by evidence of creation’s groaning. And yet\, simply talking about our concern for earthkeeping is often very challenging. \nThis seminar will focus on skills that equip us for constructive dialogue about contentious topics like biodiversity loss\, climate change\, and pollution. Even big changes usually begin in the midst of ordinary conversations. Join us as we learn how to interact in ways that foster trust\, identify common ground\, and build momentum towards shared goals. \nWhat to Expect: Practical training in how to have constructive dialogue about contentious topics. \nWorkshop #2: Churches Caring for Creation Idea Exchange\nwith a panel of people who have done practical projects at their churches \nSometimes 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 art projects\, to bird boxes & more. \nRegistration covers the cost of snacks and coffee/tea.

Our goal is to inspire hope\, wonder and curiosity through hands-on\, place-based immersive science education. By providing students with the opportunity to expand their eco-literacy and familiarity with the natural world\, our desire is that as a reflection of this knowledge\, their appreciation\, care and love of that space deepen and develop alongside their learning and exploration. \nOur work reflects our belief that God loves all of creation and calls humanity to act as stewards of that creation – both the human and non-human bits \nDiving Deeper into our Christian theology: \nWe aim to provide inclusive programming for a wide range of cultural backgrounds within our community. With that in mind\, we welcome insights from all cultures to address environmental challenges- to learn and grow from one another\, while remaining rooted in our calling to care for creation out of a love from the Creator. \nClick here for more information.
