Welcome!
Minnesota Interfaith Power & Light believes the active care of creation is integral to spiritual life and social justice. Through leadership and guidance to Minnesota’s faith communities, we respond to climate change by promoting energy conservation, energy efficiency, and renewable energy sources.
Since our founding as Congregations Caring for Creation in 2004, we have mobilized religious support for landmark legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Minnesota, educated hundreds of thousands of congregants, and worked with every major religious denomination in the state.
Our Goals
Over the next five years we plan to help faith communities to
- Assist groups in developing and sustaining green teams which empower earth stewardship within faith communities
- Provide quarterly networking opportunities featuring speakers, resources, action ideas and a chance to meet with like-minded people
- Give voice to the concerns of faith communities in public policy debates
