Trinity Presbyterian Receives GIPL Grant

Trinity Presbyterian Church in Atlanta received a GIPL Power Wise Energy Efficiency Matching Grant to help upgrade the lighting in their preschool building.  Trinity Church completed an energy audit with GIPL, and from the recommendations on that audit, they decided to replace their old light fixtures with T8 lights, which will increase the preschool building's energy efficiency.  The church was awarded $5,000 from GIPL in order to implement the light fixture upgrades.Trinity Presbyterian Church has a long commitment to sustainability initiatives.  They have upgraded many of their light fixtures already with LED fixtures.  The church is upgrading the lights that are in a building that the preschool uses for their program. Overall, their 200,000+ square foot facility is a model of sustainability with efficiencies and conservations incorporated throughout. Furthermore, their staff, both clergy and administrative, share a commitment to caring for creation as a witness to faith.Congratulations to Trinity Presbyterian Church on their continuing commitment to Creation care!  We look forward to seeing how their energy efficiencies increase costs savings for their congregation and hope that their sustainability efforts encourage others to increase their Creation care efforts.The next matching grant application deadline is November 15, 2016.
