This is God's world.

And it was made to flourish.

As God’s image-bearers within the community of creation, humans are uniquely called to the holy work of earthkeeping.

At a time of growing despair and paralysis, A Rocha is changing the way people treat the earth. We are nurturing community and hope through restoring both people and places.

Check out this video to learn more about how we’re living this out.

A Rocha was made for a time such as this!

In a time of growing social-ecological challenges, we have too often neglected our biblical calling to care for creation. Christians are the largest faith community in the U.S., but we are also known as being among the least supportive of environmental action.

For the past forty years, A Rocha organizations have been pioneering faith-based conservation projects around the world. We’re all about DOING creation care, and our hands-on initiatives are motivated by our Christian faith, guided by rigorous science and theology, and rooted in our diverse communities.

Orchestra of the Sea: Preserving God’s Creatures in Kenya

By Dr. Robert Sluka. A dugong hadn’t been spotted in Kenya in a long time – but what was the big deal? I argued that these animals were one voice in the orchestra of creation praising God, and that protecting them and helping them thrive again was an important part of our Christian faith.

Creature Feature: The Eastern Oyster (Crassostrea virginica)

By Sydney Houck. A Rocha USA interns and A Rocha USA’s Lead Scientist, Dr. Robert Sluka, have volunteered with the Brevard Zoo to establish oyster reefs, collect data, and build gabions – wire cages filled with oyster shells, which Restore Our Shores uses to encourage the colonization of oysters.
