ROAR, initiated in 1996, is a network of religious congregations and organizations concerned with the sustainable and regenerative use of land in the Hudson Valley Bioregion. Our mission statement follows: 

​We believe:
  • Human beings are part of the natural world and share kinship with all creation.
  • Humanity and the natural world form a single sacred community.
  • Ecologically sound care of Earth is a God-given mission.
Impelled by these beliefs and recognizing a time imperative, we come together to:
  • Support one another in using the land under our care with respect for its integrity, revelatory nature and beauty.
  • Collaborate with each other and with regional environmentalists and organizations.
  • Address the interrelated issues of poverty, injustice, and ecological deterioration in this bioregion. ​
Informed by Evolutionary Consciousness and drawing from our community traditions and experience, we will channel our efforts into education, motivating activities and advocacy, grounding our actions in prayer and a contemplative spirit.
