Flipside's Re-generation: November 2009

Our Mission Statement

Our Mission Statement

Thanks for your interest in Re-Generation, Flipside’s eco-community! Our mission is to honor God by fulfilling the first commission He ever gave to man… to care for what He has made and declared good.

God spoke:"Let us make human beings in our image, make them reflecting our nature So they can be responsible for the fish in the sea,the birds in the air, the cattle, And, yes, Earth itself,and every animal that moves on the face of Earth.

"God created human beings;he created them godlike, Reflecting God's nature. He created them male and female.

God blessed them:"Prosper! Reproduce! Fill Earth! Take charge! Be responsible for fish in the sea and birds in the air,for every living thing that moves on the face of Earth."–

Genesis 1:26-28 (The Message)

Our goal is to equip and encourage first our church and then the wider community to learn and implement the small, everyday things they can do to respect God’s creation.One way we’ll begin this work is by highlighting bi-monthly environmental themes.

Each week in the bulletin and on the Re-generation magnetic boards in the lobby, we’ll seek to educate the community regarding environmental issues and what we as individuals and as a community can do to mitigate the problem. One of these boards is for us to talk with you, and the other is for you to talk back! We want to know what you’re doing to honor God by caring for his creation and mitigating your negative impact on it!

Want to learn more? We suggest the book Gardening Eden: How Creation Care Will Change Your Faith, Your Life and Our World by Michael Abatte.We hope you’ll join us in this God-honoring pursuit !
