This multi-faith campaign encourages religious and spiritual communities to delight in the wonder of God's oceans but also become aware of the ongoing damage to marine life, ocean systems, and coastal communities.  We are getting to work to protect and restore the oceans in the name of God's Creation, the poor, our children, our brother and sister species, and future generations.

We are nonprofit program through the World Stewardship Institute and the National Religious Coalition on Creation Care (NRCCC). Some of our partners include the Ocean Conservancy, The Ocean Project,  and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
