Chestnut Ridge Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is hosting a workshop called “Faithful Responses to Reducing Waste” presented by Georgia Interfaith Power & Light on Sunday, October 5, 2025, starting at 12:30 p.m. 

The hour and a half workshop will be taught by Hannah Schultz from Georgia Interfaith Power & Light (GIPL). The goal is to understand the environmental and justice concerns related to the use of single-use plastics and the challenges associated with recycling in Georgia. This workshop will explore opportunities to address plastics at a policy level and solutions to help the congregation reduce and divert waste onsite. The workshop is open to the community. 

Chestnut Ridge Christian Church, a Green Chalice Congregation with the Disciples of Christ, is a recipient of a ReWilding Program grant from GIPL. The ReWilding Program with GIPL is a program to focus on the ecological regeneration of congregational lands, restoring natural processes, and fostering more resilient ecosystems and communities. This Workshop is presented as part of that program.

The “Faithful Responses to Reducing Waste” workshop will take place in the sanctuary of Chestnut Ridge Christian Church, beginning at 12:30pm and ending around 2pm on Sunday, October 5, 2025. The church is located at 2663 Johnson Ferry Road in Marietta, at the corner of Post Oak Tritt and Johnson Ferry. Enter the parking lot off of Post Oak Tritt.
