Local religious leaders will gather later this month in Winslow to talk about climate change and its implications on faith.

The reality of climate change has spurred most religious communities to release statements on the ethical and moral imperative to respond to this impending crisis which will egregiously impact the most vulnerable of our society. In concert with these statements Bainbridge Interfaith Council, Bainbridge Island Citizen’s Climate Lobby, and Climate Action Bainbridge are sponsoring a panel discussion with local faith leaders on “Faith and Climate Change.”

The forum will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27 at Eagle Harbor Congregational Church. Everyone is welcome.

The faith leaders are Rev. Dee Eisenhauer, Eagle Harbor Congregational Church; Rabbi Sasko, Congregation Kol Shalom; Rev. Paul Stummi-Diers, Bethany Lutheran Church; and Rev. Eric Mason, Grace Episcopal Church.

Eagle Harbor Congregational Church is located at 105 Winslow Way West.
