Living as global disciples: creative hands-on actions for congregations and homes

New Just Living Program: Enough for Everyone comes home

Enough for Everyone announces its new component focused on lifestyle integrity for families, couples and individuals: Just Living.

Previously Enough for Everyone has focused on congregational programs; now we are expanding to include lifestyle integrity practices in the home. There are many ways we can express our faith commitments in our daily living, and Just Living helps individual members bring home lifestyle integrity through practicing faith in all aspects of daily life. Major sections of the Web site include Everyday Living and Seasons and Celebrations (organized and updated seasonally according to both liturgical and earth seasons). Be sure to check out our brand-new seasonal resources related to Autumn, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Presbyterian Coffee Project

Enjoy fellowship and an excellent cup of coffee while reaching out to communities in the coffee-growing world. Congregations that participate are supporting fair trade — ensuring that more of our "coffee dollar" goes to the farmers who do the work. Fair trade complements Presbyterian mission with farmers around the world. Order a free brochure.

Electric Stewardship

Practice responsible stewardship of God's creation by becoming an Energy Steward Congregation. Energy audits can identify concrete actions (such as changing light fixtures) that save your church money and reduce the impact of energy use on the natural environment. Order a free brochure.

Sweat-Free T-shirts

When your church, presbytery or camp prints t-shirts, why not use Sweat-Free? Most apparel we purchase is manufactured under harsh working conditions in sweatshops. There are alternatives. Check out our list of "sweat-free" companies whose employees receive fair wages, benefits and treatment. Order a free brochure.

Oikocredit

Invest church funds in Oikocredit, which provides credit to low-income communities, enabling them to become economically self-supporting. Order a free brochure.

Eco-Palm Project

Purchase responsibly harvested eco-palm branches for Palm Sunday. The palms come from communities in Mexico and Guatemala where workers are paid fairly and engage in sustainable harvesting in order to protect the local ecosystem.

Global Marketplace

Make the Global Marketplace partners your primary sources for gifts and products. Whether you are buying for yourself or for others, your purchases benefit not only the people who use and enjoy the items, but, perhaps most importantly, the people around the world who make them — and who often rely on our support to live their lives in dignity rather than poverty.
