11.01.2022 Today is Global Recycling Day. Stewardship is one of the Biblical Principals underpinning Health and Pastoral Care Ministry. Christians are entrusted with God’s most valuable creation, humans and the environment. How Christians accept their stewardship responsibility and carry it out is their testimony to the world and their living sacrifice to God (Rom 12:1-2). How we care for ourselves enables us to fulfil God’s purposes for our lives, regardless of our health state or the presence of disabilities. How Christians care for one another and the creation influences the health and wellbeing of all.

It can also contribute to us achieving the most economical and optimal use of our personal capacity in a way that is sustainable over the long haul." [1] #Selfcare #SelfcareisStewardship 1. J Ashfield, ‘Straight talk about self-care’, YouCanHelp Publishing, 2017, p. 12
