Circuit Policy

CHELMSFORD METHODIST CIRCUIT ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY The heavens are yours, the earth also is yours; the world and all that is in it – you have founded them. Psalm 89:11 What are we called to do? The calling of the Methodist Church is to respond to the gospel of God’s love in Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission. Caring for creation is one of the ways we as churches, can share God’s love with others, challenge injustice and help people in our own communities and beyond.
