Ecumenical Decade for Climate Action

Ecumenical Decade for Climate Action

WCC Ecumenical Decade of Climate Action

The Ecumenical Decade of Climate Justice Action (2025–2034) that the Council of
Bishops urged us to support
is a bold invitation from the World Council of Churches and ecumenical partners worldwide: a pilgrimage of repentance, renewal, and action to confront the climate emergency with courage, hope, and love. The Decade is not just a campaign or a project. It is a spiritual pilgrimage and a prophetic movement of churches worldwide.

  • Spiritual Journey: Lament, repent, and renew discipleship rooted in care for
    creation.
  • Prophetic Witness: Speak truth to power, challenge injustice, and advocate for
    systemic change.
  • Practical Action: Transition churches to renewable energy, build resilience in
    communities, and support adaptation and biodiversity.
  • Living Witness: Become sanctuaries of sustainability, centers of resilience, and
    voices of hope.

As churches and faith communities, we have both moral authority and global
presence. Now is the time to lead – by repenting of complicity, resisting ecological sin, and reclaiming our vocation as caretakers of God’s creation.
