Extinction Rebellion

Heading for Extinction - and what to do about it

One for your (new) diary!

We have arranged for a speaker from the Newark & Sherwood group of Extinction Rebellion to come and explain things to us on the evening of Friday January 17th, 7pm for 7.30pm. Coffee and tea available. Please come and join the discussion. Climate Breakdown and the Ecological Crisis are the most urgent matters facing us and our children. 

We need to do something and we need to do it NOW!

HEADING FOR EXTINCTION
and what to do about it 

It's an EMERGENCY! A Climate Emergency

It's an EMERGENCY!

BJCC declares a CLIMATE EMERGENCY

At our Church Meeting and AGM on Sunday 2nd June 2019 the church agreed to declare a CLIMATE EMERGENCY in recognition of the seriousness of the crisis facing our planet.

And we agreed to register as an ECO-CHURCH and work towards our bronze, silver and gold certificates under the scheme run by A ROCHA, a Christian environmental charity. Both the United Reform Church and the Methodist Church support these initiatives.

Watch this space for further developments at BJCC over the coming months
