Episcopal Creation Care Gathering 2026
September 23-26 at Procter Center
The Episcopal Creation Care Gathering invites Creation Care leaders and activists to spend time digging deep into the theological and practical ministry of Creation Care across The Episcopal Church.
During this gathering, you will have the opportunity to engage in conversation, learning, and practice as we explore the deep relationships that bind spirituality, justice, ecology, discipleship, and evangelism as we move into the next era of Christian faith. The event includes workshops, plenaries, outdoor recreation, and intentional conversation. Participants can choose from a variety of lodging – from tent camping to hotel-style rooms at the Procter Center.
The Episcopal Creation Care Gathering Network is a churchwide network of those who are interested and commited to the the work of Christian ministry with an emphasis on care of Creation. Our conference is co-sponsored by Provinces IV and V of The Episcopal Church, Procter Center, and the Diocese of Southern Ohio.
Meet Our Keynote Presenter
The Rt. Rev. Cathleen Chittenden Bascom is the founder of the Episcopal Grasslands Network, a churchwide community of creation care folks learning to honor creation in our native ecosystems, find connection in environmental vocation, and grow together in Jesus’ way of love.
Bishop Cathleen served as the tenth bishop of the Diocese of Kansas before accepting a call in January 2026 to serve in a consulting role on the Presiding Bishop’s staff, working to build out Eco-Region Networks in the US and in Province IX.
