Caring for this earth is a duty of our faith and a way to respect God’s creations. Regardless of a person’s background, culture, or religious preferences, we are all called to protect the planet on which we live to preserve the future of the earth. As stewards and stewardesses called by God to share the responsibility for the future of the earth, we must work to protect all of creation for the sake of future

Through the study of scripture, Christian movements and the views of historical and contemporary figures, it can be said that Christian ethical teachings have a significant influence on the lives of its adherents. A prime example of the effects of these teachings is the nature and practice of Christian environmental ethics. The Stanford Encyclopaedia of Philosophy defines environmental ethics as the discipline in philosophy that studies the moral relationship of human beings to, and also the value and moral status of, the environment and its nonhuman contents. Although each denomination has its own unique manner of judging ethical understanding, the basic and fundamental structures of their environmental
When God created human beings, he gave us the responsibility to take care of his creation. Through nurturing and preserving what God has given the world, I am putting to action my Catholic identity. For my evidence for Kindergarten year, I’ve found an assignment that was captioned, “God, I want to be a saint. This is what I will do to show my love for you and for others.” In that time, my idea of stewardship was not being destructive to plants or being mean to creation in general. Although I had a very simple idea of how stewardship would show love for God and for others, I know that this showed some type of understanding of my Catholic values in the perspective of a six-year-old. I’ve found that it shows an understanding of what the Church has been teaching me. As I said before, the Catholic Social Teachings is an important part of the structure of my faith. Through showing my respect and responsibility of stewardship through this piece of evidence, I was showing that I understood an important part of my Catholic
What is environmental stewardship, and why is it so important? Well, environmental stewardship is being responsible, with the way we treat the environment. It is important, because if we destroy our environment, we end up destroying that which provides for us, and ultimately our means of survival. We are going to talk about the Alberta tar sands development, and about how they are not effectively protecting their environment. This has already led to negative effects in the surrounding areas. These effects will only continue to worsen, if nothing is done to slow down, or further prevent them from happening.
It's mainly based around human dignity, with a holistic approach to development, which comes back to the main principles of catholic social teaching.
As a student of Saint Lawrence, any kid can be a steward to other people. They can serve others and assist them with their journey to become a more adept Catholic steward. I’m currently a boy scout right now in Troop 101. A boy scout can exemplify as being a steward. They aid other people and serve the nation on what they decided to establish. As a boy scout, there's one community service I associated with with my fellow troop members this year. The service was at Mount Saint Joseph Carmelite Monastery up in the hills. Nuns and priests needed people to assist them with clearing twigs and garbage in one of their fields, so the janitor doesn’t have to do too much work in there and just pick up the trash instead. Troop 101 was in charge of picking
There are many messages the Catholic Church wishes to teach us, as well as lead us to follow. Many of them are interrelated as well, as many of them center upon similar ideas, like love, giving, or life. A few themes include that everyone is a part of God's creation, God lives within all of us, God is love, human life is valuable, and nothing is impossible for God. We, as Catholics, believe that God is love- an important idea in the Church. Since God is within us all, we also all must have love within us. And since we're all a part of his creation, everyone is equally special and should be treated like they are.
The role of the Catholic Church going to the peripheries is huge for the community. First off, the Catholic Church helps those in need by donating to people who don’t have shelter, or people who don’t have food or water to drink. They also help by holding volunteer work, so people who want to help those in need can by being there. Another thing the Catholic Church does to help those in need is praying. Some people get together to help those in need by asking the Lord to help them. Others pray for them by themselves to help for those in need. The Catholic Church is very generous for being there when people are in need. The Catholic church greatly represents the Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy. They would help feed the hungry by bringing goods to those who need it. The Church can give drink to the thirsty by not wasting water. The Catholic Church helps people to shelter the homeless by collecting supplies they need. They can clothe the naked by donating clothes to those who don’t have enough. The Church can visit the sick and imprisoned giving blood and spending time volunteering at nursing homes. They bury the dead by sending a card to to someone who has lost a loved one. Finally, the Catholic Church give alms to the poor by donating money, like a the poor box in the Church. The Spiritual Works of Mercy can also represent the Catholic Church helping those in need. Overall, the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy really represent how the Catholic Church helps those in need, and the Church is a good role model for all Catholics alike.
