OFN hosting OKC National Faith + Climate Forum
Oklahoma Faith Network is a proud host of the upcoming National Faith + Climate Forum 2025 on March 27. This pivotal event is a call to all who are passionate about intertwining faith with actionable climate stewardship.
The Forum is presented virtually by Blessed Tomorrow, and local faith communities gather together to participate, collaborate, and share resources. Thank you to Church of the Arms UCC for providing our location!
This year's forum, themed "Seven Acts of Faith for Building Thriving Congregations," offers an opportunity for us to explore impactful ways to integrate environmental stewardship and social justice into our faith practices. From innovative workshops to inspiring talks, each segment is designed to empower and uplift. Find the full agenda here.
Last year was the first annual National Faith + Climate Forum, and Oklahoma did not have a host site! This year, the Oklahoma Faith Network is proud to gather Oklahomans from all faiths who care deeply about our common home. Much gratitude to the Church of the Open Arms for hosting us in their beautiful space! If your faith community is interested in co-hosting, email us at info@okfaith.org.
Funding will be available to attendees for ecological initiatives that involve collaboration between one or more faith communities.
Whether you've participated in the past or are new to climate action, your presence will contribute to a collective effort to foster a sustainable and just future for all. Let's come together to learn, inspire, and act!
