Care for God's Creation

Care for God's Creation is respecting everything God has made. There are so many things we can do to protect and save God's creation. A couple ways to do this is recycling, not polluting, and just respecting the environment. Recycling helps reduce the amount of trees we have to cut down to get the necessary paper we need. Keeping the air and water clean is someething very simple we an do. All you have to do is put your trash in a trash can instead of littering. Respecting the environment is something that we all probably all need to work on, one easy solution is try to cut down on the plastic it really does hurt our environment.

God put everything on the world for a reason. Have you evr thought of why you were out on this world? Maybe its because you can make a difference. You could be the one to start a group of teenagers to help clean up the beaches or start recycling at local places where they use a lot of things that could be recycled. Everyone and thing deserves to be respected. You, the students of St. John's could make difference. I challenge you if your family does not recycle to talk to your parents about starting to recycle. Remember anything is possible!

  1. You are so right! we could do that right now. cleaning up the beach is so easy! It is really easy to care for God's creation, but so easy to destroy it. I am glad you told us about it!
