Creation Care Council
Park View Mennonite Church (PVMC) established a Creation Care Council (CCC) in mid-2009 to provide focused attention to the environmental impact of the church community, with the aim of learning, distributing knowledge, and taking actions that would reduce harmful impacts on nature and the natural systems that sustain a rich and diverse life.
