WAPAKONETA — A half-day seminar on “Faithful Sustainability: Best Practices for Facilities and Homes in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati,” will take place from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., breakfast and lunch included, Saturday, Nov. 7, at the Parish Life Center for St. Joseph and the Petersburg Parishes, 101 W.

Through workshops and discussions with local experts, participants will explore how the local church can reduce our environmental footprint, lower utility bills, nurture nature, and increase our commitment to energy efficiency in our homes, schools, and parishes. Topics will include energy efficiency, financing options, native plants, recycling, composting, and more.

The cost of $5 includes a light breakfast and lunch, both locally sourced.

All are welcome, but space is limited to the first 50 facility leaders and 50 parishioners who register.

Join one of two tracks: facility or household best practices.
