Each year, the World Council of Churches calls Christians worldwide to observe the Season of Creation. In answer to this call, Plymouth will host a year of programming entitled “Living Waters.”
This series began on Oct. 3-4 with Pastor John Tyson preaching on the sacredness of water and God’s call for us to be its stewards.
From there, the Plymouth Creation Care and Justice Committee will continue offering monthly presentations on ways to protect, preserve, and celebrate the gift of water, culminating in a paddling adventure in the summer of 2027.
