A project of EMO, Oregon Interfaith Power & Light (OIPL) engages the faith community to strive for accountability in our individual and collective energy decisions in an interdependent world.
Our vision is a rich, abundant life for all creation rooted in renewable resources for a society moving into a post-fossil fuel era. The principles guiding our vision include justice, equality, compassion and respect for the sacredness of Earth.
Oregon Interfaith Power & Light is part of a multi-state network of Interfaith Power & Light affiliates and nested within Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon. Locally and nationally, OIPL realizes its vision through grassroots advocacy for climate change solutions, policies and initiatives, and by providing opportunities for theological and spiritual reflection.
Focusing Our Efforts
Oregon Interfaith Power & Light’s work focuses on pathways to strengthen local community health and resilience through its extensive connections across Oregon faith communities, and is grateful to the many funders, including the local churches and individual donors who make this work possible.
The Faith Community and Resilience
Join also our efforts to support resilience efforts across the state. We participate in the B2Weeks Ready program that seeks to equip local communities to be prepared and be ready for wildfire, earthquake, drought, heat or other disaster. Contact [email protected] for more information.
