Teddington's parish church, St Mary with St Alban, will host a climate-themed service this Sunday 9 May to mark their commitment to reducing their environmental impact.

The landmark service is part of an initiative by ChurchesTogether calling on all local churches across Great Britain & Ireland to hold a climate-focused service on any Sunday before COP26 in Glasgow this November.

In a statement on the Climate Sunday website ChurchesTogether said: "Our vision is to leave a lasting legacy of thousands of churches better equipped to address this critical issue as part of their discipleship and mission and to make a significant contribution to civil society efforts to secure adequate national and international action at COP26.

"The collective action and commitments from local churches across Great Britain & Ireland will be presented to UK Government at a Nations Climate Sunday Service in Glasgow on Sunday 5th September 2021."

According to the website, Climate Sunday services will explore the theological and scientific basis of creation care and action on climate. There will also be prayer and a commitment to action.

St Mary and St Alban wrote in the event listing: "The intention of the service is to not only incorporate the themes of our action plan, but to widen the communication and engagement of this commitment in our Church."

The service starts at 10am and everyone is welcome.

Tickets are available via this link and the event will also be live-streamed on YouTube HERE .
