Rev. Prof. Dr Jerry Pillay, WCC general secretary, affirms, "Our faith compels us to stand against the destruction of our planet. This season is a call for bold, sustainable action."
The WCC will cohost various events, including a webinar on the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty and an Action Day focused on practical steps that faith communities can take to combat climate change. These initiatives are designed to turn prayer into action, advocating for justice for the most vulnerable.
Athena Peralta, director of the WCC Commission on Climate Justice and Sustainable Development, states, "Climate change is a moral issue that demands our collective voice. We can create the change needed for a sustainable future through prayer and activism for the phaseout of fossil fuels."
From 1 September to 4 October, the Season of Creation calls Christians worldwide to unite in prayer and take tangible steps toward environmental stewardship and climate justice. The WCC encourages member churches to engage in sustainable practices, support environmental justice initiatives, and be a voice for the voiceless.
