PA Environment Digest Blog: Interfaith Partners For The Chesapeake Bay Hosts 3-Part Online Faithfull Green Leaders Training Program Starting Oct. 14

The Interfaith Partners for the Chesapeake Bay has issued an invitation to congregations throughout the Bay Watershed to join the more than 200 other congregations who have answered the call to form Green Teams in their communities.

Interfaith Partners will be hosting a three-part, online Faithfull Green Leaders Training Program starting October 14 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.

The other training sessions will be held on October 21 and 28.

Through the training you will learn--

-- How to establish and grow a green team at your congregation

-- About exciting environmental education programs to engage your congregation

-- How to develop an action plan for your Green Team

-- Ways to enhance your communication skills to help spread the word

All attendees are strongly encouraged to come with at least two other people from their congregation because there is no such thing as "a team of 1."
