Get InvolvedCreation Care
This coastline is a gift. Tending it is part of how we pray.
St. Mary's sits two blocks from the Pacific, and our Creation Care ministry grows out of that daily nearness. We believe care for the earth is not a side project of faith but an expression of it, a response to the God who called creation good.
What we do
● Zero Trash Day and beach cleanups along our stretch of coast
● Reducing single-use waste at parish events and coffee hour
● Tending the memorial garden and grounds with drought-wise planting
● Learning together, talks, reading, and conversation on climate and faith
Worship outdoors
Several times a year we take worship into the open air: Worship on the Green at the beach, and the Blessing of the Animals on St. Francis Day in our upper garden. See the parish calendar for dates.
