The Sacredness of Water Webinar Series

Held in 2022 and hosted by Louisiana Interchurch Conference, these 90-minute webinars bring together a diverse group of leaders of faith-based organizations and environmental groups to examine our physical, spiritual, cultural and socioeconomic dependence on this life-sustaining resource. Participants explore emerging threats to water, useful sources of information, and ethical actions that we may take to protect this most profound gift.

Sacredness of Water Webinar #2: Why are we in this crisis with water, flooding, sea level rise? What are the current threats to Louisiana as we understand them? How can and should people of faith respond?

Sacredness of Water Webinar #4: “Water and Environmental Justice” - facilitated by Dr. Margaret Reams, the Joseph D. Martinez Professor of Environmental Sciences, Louisiana State University.

Almighty God, in giving us dominion over things on earth, you made us co-workers in your creation. Give us wisdom and reverence to use the resources of nature, so that no one may suffer from our abuse of them, and that generations yet to come may continue to praise you for your bounty; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
