Event Summary
To celebrate Earth Day Epiphany's Creation Care Team created a Planet Vs. Plastic display in the Connector on Sunday, April 21. Displays included numerous alternative household and personal items that do not use plastic.
Parish Life showed how Epiphany events are greatly reducing its plastic use. People also had the opportunity to add their names to petitions advocating for global plastic reduction.
A battery recycling station was available for used-battery dropoff; another display featured recycling programs from the area's four waste management companies.
Nature was brought indoors with natural materials (such as stones, cones, greenery, sticks, and petals) that people were encouraged to use in creating their mandalas onsite.
They also had the chance to see results from the survey of parishioners reporting on how they are reducing plastic use in their day-to-day lives.
