Care for the Earth is a critical part of Christian discipleship. Brunswick Uniting Church has been awarded a series of “5-Leaf Eco Awards” for our environmental engagement – prayer, theological study, and practical actions by members and by the whole congregation.
In November 2019, the congregation adopted a resolution acknowledging the Climate Crisis, and committing us to further action.
