Meeting in assembly, the Northeastern Minnesota Synod voted to adopt two major EcoFaith resolutions. Both were presented on the floor and passed on Sunday morning to applause!

The first resolution commits us to becoming a Pollinator Synod, launching a synodwide effort to create native pollinator habitat, and to commit to becoming pollinators of the care of creation in local settings and in the upper Midwest. 

The second resolution, Responding to the Kairos Moment of the Climate Crisis, renewing its commitment to living God’s call to be stewards of the earth for the sake of the whole creation, and declaring that racial justice, economic justice, and environmental justice, in their distinctiveness and intersectionality, are essential components of witnessing to the gospel of Jesus Christ today.
