Shrewsbury
is the County Town of Shropshire and sits on a hill in a loop
of the River Severn. It predates the Roman occupation of Britain
and is noted for its historic buildings and the medieval detective
Brother Cadfael.
The URC is a church formed originally from the union of The
Congregational and Presbyterian Churches in England and Wales.
An Eco Congregation
In June 2005, Shrewsbury URC became the first church in Shropshire to win the Eco Congregation Award, after demonstrating that it makes the link between Christian Faith and environmental issues. The Green Team has encouraged the congregation to embrace a variety of initiatives, including creation awareness, recycling, energy conservation and local and global outreach. This is an ongoing programme which tries to involve all aspects of church life.
There is more information on this Christian environmental programme at www.ecocongregation.org
