Dear Steve,
With three amazing decades of ministry under its belt, the Eco-Justice Program is branching off on its own with a new name—Creation Justice Ministries—but a very familiar staff. I am pleased to announce that Tyler Edgar, the former assistant director, will be the new Executive Director and I am confident that she will continue to provide great leadership and guidance as this “new” organization grows and thrives.
The structure of Creation Justice Ministries mirrors the “old” and successful Eco-Justice Program structure, and will ensure continued engagement by Protestant denominations and Orthodox communions. The ministry focus will remain the same: working to protect God’s people and God’s planet through education, training, and public witness.
I hope you will join me in sending prayerful blessings to this “new” yet “old” ministry. To learn more, visit www.creationjustice.org (though be aware it's still under development!) and follow its progress as it grows and thrives. You can also get in touch with Tyler directly at ty...@creationjustice.org.
And I encourage you to stay involved by participating in Creation Justice Ministries' education and training programs, its public witness offerings, or by making a contribution.
Blessings,
Cassandra
