Instagram post 2226417333021306153_288690209 "Reading the words 'if everyone forgets about nature, it will fall apart and we don’t want that' written in a letter sent to me from an 11-year-old student in 2013, made me realize how far my message had traveled. This was one of 30 letters I received from a Haitian school after students watched a presentation I had given on nature deficit disorder.⁠ ⁠ These students feared that they wouldn’t have the opportunity to experience nature because they didn’t have access to it. This made me recognize something that many people in Vancouver don’t – we are incredibly lucky to live in an environment that hasn’t seen losses as significant as other parts of the world, but that is predicted to change quickly. Action is required on a global scale and that’s where education comes in."⁠ - Miranda Andersen⁠ ⁠ Fraser Basin Council uses the "My Climate Story" platform to gather inspiring stories of youth in action for creation. Take the time in this new year to learn more about how youth in BC are taking action! If you know any youth in BC with a story to share, you can also take part in inspiring others by submitting their story!⁠ 🔗 in bio!⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #arocha #arochacanada #creationcare #conservation #godscreation #environmentalstewardship #stewardship #christian #earth #conservation #sustainableagriculture #education #outdooreducation

Instagram post 2218489816764862511_288690209 🎉🎉🎉 We are excited to announce that we have a new Ontario Director! Please join us in welcoming Brenda Slomka to the A Rocha Canada family!⁠ 👏👏👏⁠ .⁠ Brenda joins the A Rocha community with a breadth of diverse experience that we fully believe will benefit our mission, complement our community and help A Rocha flourish.⁠ .⁠ This is what she had to say about her new role:⁠ .⁠ "I’m extremely humbled by this invitation to steward such a rich, thoughtful, incarnational organization that seeks to live out values of care for creation, cultivation of community and commitment to conservation. I don’t take for granted those who have come before, and the work that Amila has done over the last year during this transitional time and the wisdom that she will share with me as I enter this transitional phase. I’m looking forwarding to meeting and connecting intentionally with you all in the A Rocha community.”⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #arocha #arochacanada #creationcare #conservation #godscreation #environmentalstewardship #stewardship #christian #earth #conservation #sustainableagriculture #education #outdooreducation

Come help others have their own exciting experience and donate today! Link in bio! 🔗 . . Remember, your gift will be doubled (up to a total of $20,000) if you donate by December 31st! . .
