Disciples congregations are being urged to support efforts to help "green" the 2009 General Assembly and offset travel mileage to Indianapolis. Those who plan to participate in the program should calculate their roundtrip mileage from their residence to the Assembly. Then ask others to bank Assembly mileage offsets by walking, biking, carpooling or busing.
Each new mile that is accrued by traveling through alternative means, or not traveled due to carpooling counts toward the offset. Disciples may keep track of their traveled miles on a spreadsheet or post it in a visible location to mark the congregation’s progress. For more information, download the "Offset Your Travel To The Assembly" guide by visiting www.disciples.org/ga and clicking on the "Keeping it ‘Green’" link.
