The Eco-Stewards program seeks to train and inspire young adults ages 18-24 in the ways of eco-stewardship within the wider context of our Christian faith. This includes training in Biblical and theological foundations for environmental stewardship and practical training in how to implement environmental and ecological stewardship projects. Such projects may include building composting toilets, solar hot water systems, micro hydro or micro wind systems, eco-designed structures, soil erosion controls, stream restoration projects, and composting systems. Following these trainings, Eco-Stewards will be sent with mentors to other PCCCA camps to share what they have learned with camps and churches.
