You are invited...

See below for an invitation for a community potluck for organizations and faith based groups related to sustainability! 

Community Potluck:

Resources for Stewardship of the Earth

The Grace Lutheran Church Green Team and Transition Town State College would like to invite you or representatives of your organization to attend a potluck dinner and information exchange on January 31, 2013.

This will be an opportunity for local and regional groups with a focus on sustainability, stewardship and other environmental issues to display and exchange information about their missions, current initiatives and future plans.

The goal is to foster connections between faith based groups and existing environmental / sustainability organizations, and to provide individuals that have a faith-driven interest in environmental stewardship with opportunities to broaden their involvement.

Details:

Date: Thursday, January 31 2013
Time: Gather at 5:45, dinner and program 6:00 to 7:30 PM
Place: Grace Lutheran Church, corner of Beaver Ave. and Garner St., State College

Agenda:

We will be gathering at 5:45 and have a potluck dinner starting at 6:00.  This will be followed by an opportunity for exchanging and sharing information about the missions and goals of our respective groups.  Brief presentations by Transition Town State College and by the Grace Lutheran Church Green Team will be followed by a group discussion.

If you or your group would be interested in sending representatives to this gathering, or if you know of another group that should be included in this invitation, please respond via e-mail to...

In your message, please indicate whether you are an individual or member of a group, your group’s name and your mission or the primary focus of your interest in environmental stewardship.

We will contact interested parties in early January with a detailed agenda and more information about the display / information exchange portion of the evening. We also anticipate requesting that groups and organizations provide a summary of specific information (for example,  their missions, current initiatives and future challenges / plans) which we will assemble and make available to all participants.

Thank you for our interest!  Please remember to RSVP by January 4.
