“In the land where the liberation theology produced significant fruits, a program is launched addressed to everyone and which can be used by those who at this moment defend a strategic environmental framework for biodiversity and climate balance”. Thus the Globalization and Environment Commission (GLAM) of the Federation of Protestant Churches in Italy (FCEI) on the final document of the Synod for the Amazon region which took place in Rome (Vatican), last month of October. GLAM in the document pays particular attention to the missionary church that “is called to personal and community conversion towards a harmonious relationship with the creative work of God and in which the conversion to Jesus Christ for the recovery of the Amazon region from its peripheral condition moves on different levels: pastoral, cultural, ecological and synodal”.
