What's a Small(er) Sunday

The idea behind a small(er) Sunday is to to reduce the amount of resources we use up when we meet together.

Many of us gather on Sundays - and when we come together like this it takes a lot of energy. We heat our buildings in the winter, we cool them in the summer, we read off powerpoint, we amplify our music.... the list goes on.

But what would it show if we tried to use less?

What if we turned the heat down and threw on an extra sweater in the winter?
What if we opened the windows and let a breeze cool us in the summer?
What if we brought back the hymnal?

What would happen if we took small (or even smaller) steps toward reducing our collective footprints?

We think it would change the world. Worst case scenario, it would at least change us. And that's worth trying...

So what's a small(er) Sunday?
That's up to you - get creative, share your stories on this site and let's see what happens.
