Ministry of Friends of Creation (FoC)<\/h1>\n

Inspired by the call of Pope Francis, Church of Divine Mercy, Penang, Malaysia (CDM) pledged as Green Parish and received two green awards from Local Government in 2019. \u00a0We support Catholic Global Climate Movement to care for our mother earth and support Penang State vision to be a Green State.\u00a0 CDM advocates zero plastics waste, we reduce waste by educating parishioners to make enzyme, compost, eco-bricks, and lastly recycle. Our parishioners are encouraged to BYO (Bring your own) for all events.\u00a0\u00a0 We conserve natural resources by installing solar panel, rain harvest system, and drip irrigation system. \u00a0CDM has rooftop vegetable gardens that serve as an education centre to encourage parishioners to grow our own food naturally to reduce carbon footprint and eat healthily, and the harvest is to donate to the poor besides selling to sustain the garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div>
