This project will involve and be aimed at supporting Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians in their call to care for and protect God\u2019s creation.<\/p><p>In 2024 we have been privileged to have been awarded a \u00a360,000 Science for Seminaries grant. We believe that science and theology are two ways that we can grow closer to God and His world, and this funding will be put towards growing science-engaged-theology in the college. We will be developing our engagement with ecology through the Environmental Stewardship module as well as running events to encourage and inspire church leaders to develop their own science-engaged creation care activities in their local areas.<\/p><p>Science for Seminaries and the ECLAS project are funded by a \u00a36.3 million grant from the John Templeton Foundation, running 2023-27. ECLAS is led from St John\u2019s College, Durham University in partnership with the University of York and the Church of England.<\/p><p>For more details about our project and the other Colleges who have achieved awards please see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eclasproject.org\/introducing-our-newest-science-for-seminaries-partners\/\">https:\/\/www.eclasproject.org\/introducing-our-newest-science-for-seminaries-partners\/<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e18a623 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e18a623\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Announcements on seed funding Awardees<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5895fa7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5895fa7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>FUNDING AVAILABLE &#8211; \u00a3500<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">In early 2025, Birmingham Christian College hosted three<br \/>international workshops on the theme of Pentecostal Faith and Science in<br \/>Creation Care.
