Saltwater Church has received Green Sanctuary Certification,
a program that inspires UU congregations to act for greater environmental
stewardship and sustainability. Our congregation is among the first 20% of
churches actively engaged in this program sponsored by the UU Ministry for the
Earth. Momentum is growing across our denomination as witnessed by the distribution
last year of over 700 Green Sanctuary Manuals. See the national website for more
information.

Action Plan: In order to become a candidate, the Saltwater Green Sanctuary Task Force
conducted an Environmental Audit to provide a snapshot of where our congregation
stood with respect to its environmental behaviors and developed an action plan
of projects/events that contained at least 12 projects in four focus areas:
1) Worship and Celebration,
2) Religious Education,
3) Environmental Justice, and
4) Sustainable Living. See our
Action Plan to learn more about our projects
