The Supporter Award is a great place to begin. It recognises churches that are taking their first steps towards more sustainable flower arranging by becoming aware of the environmental impact of their practices and making simple, positive changes. It is about building good habits and demonstrating a commitment to caring for creation.
The Advocate Award recognises churches that have embedded sustainable practices into their flower ministry and are actively encouraging others to do the same. Advocates seek out environmentally responsible alternatives, share ideas and learning, and help foster a culture of creation care within their church and community.
The Champion Award celebrates churches that are leading the way in sustainable church flowers. Champions demonstrate excellence in environmentally responsible practices, creativity in working with seasonal and locally sourced materials, and a commitment to inspiring and mentoring others. They serve as examples of how beauty, worship, and care for creation can flourish together.
Applying for a Sustainable Church Flowers Award is a wonderful way to celebrate your church's care for God's creation.
Whether as a Supporter, Advocate, or Champion, the award encourages everyone to use flowers and foliage thoughtfully, reduce waste, support local and seasonal growing, and reflect the beauty of creation in ways that glorify the Creator.
Rather than being about perfection, it is about taking practical steps, sharing good practice, and inspiring others as we seek to be faithful stewards of the gifts God has entrusted to us.
