In the months to come, this space will be used to post profiles of some of the founders of the Creation Care movement — those unsung heroes who’ve introduced the concept of environmental stewardship as a spiritual issue to people across America over the past decade.
Thanks to these visionaries, people of faith have begun to recognize their responsibility to care for the earth, not just as individuals, but also within their religious communities.
LEAF, the Lindquist Environmental Appalachian Fellowship, came into being because Kathy Lindquist chose to speak out about the destruction of Appalachia’s mountains. The profiles that will appear here are offered as a way to continue to honor Kathy’s spirit by highlighting the profound impact a dedicated individual can make during his or her lifetime.
I look forward to introducing readers to some of the fascinating individuals I’ve encountered during LEAF’s ten-year journey. My hope is they will inspire you, as they’ve inspired me.
Blessings,
Patricia Hudson
