HOW TO ORGANIZE AN INTERFAITH VIGIL ON CLIMATE CHANGE
Interfaith Moral Action on Climate (interfaithactiononclimatechage.org) is calling for and encouraging local interfaith vigils calling for action on the climate crisis on April 24th or anytime during Earth week, April 21-27. Public vigils are a simple yet effective way to reach people and bring public attention to an issue. Here are some suggestions and ideas to help you organize a successful one in your area:
An interfaith vigil can be initiated by an individual, a faith community, or by an already existing group. We encourage people who want to put one together to reach out to a cross-section of faith traditions. Looking at the Endorsers of Interfaith Moral Action on Climate is one way to get ideas on who might be interested. Another source would be groups working on the climate crisis who will probably know of faith-based groups, congregations, or individuals interested in this issue as a result of their work.

Short Paragraph (to insert text into existing Bulletin):
INTERFAITH MORAL ACTION ON CLIMATE:
CALL TO ACTION EARTH WEEK 2012
Interfaith Moral Action on Climate, a collaborative initiative of religious leaders, groups and individuals, believes that climate change is the gravest moral challenge of our time. We also believe that by demonstrating that a collective conscience exists on this issue, positive change is possible, and we can bring it about. During Earth Week 2012 (April 21-27), we will be taking our message to the people who can make positive change happen. Through a week of action in Washington DC and across the country, we intend to awaken our nation’s elected officials, civic and business leaders and households to the need for immediate and effective action to address the climate crisis and protect God’s Creation.
