October/November 2008

The Massachusetts Conference, the Massachusetts Council of Churches, Boston Theological Institute, and the Episcopal Church are co-sponsoring a summit of religious leaders to discuss the twin crises of climate instability/global warming and energy prices/“peak oil”.

The meeting of religious leaders, clergy, staff and lay leaders will be held November 20th at Plymouth Congregational Church in Framingham, 11:00am - 2:30pm.

Bill McKibben, internationally known author on climate issues, will speak on his new global
