We believe that
Creation is a sacred
trust given to
the whole Earth
community.
Therefore, we
commit ourselves
individually and
collectively to ask in
every deliberation,
How does this decision/
action impact the Earth
community? We do this
to raise our awareness and
change our behaviors. Communion

to Action 2013
