Give Your Church a Test!

Find out from your local gas and electric company the things they recommend for energy efficiency in buildings and grounds. Make a list of these recommendations and tour the church buildings and grounds to check which suggestions are already followed and what things are missing. Write a review of your findings and submit it to the church’s governing board with a nice note congratulating them on their current efficiency and encouraging them to take more steps (be specific). Give your reasons for wanting them to take more steps! Use our report “Bottom Line Ministries that Matter” to learn what kind of savings might be in store for your church if they invest in energy efficient materials, resources specific to your state or denomination, and as a tool to influence church policy decision makers.
