Abstract
This essay is written from a feminist ecotheological perspective in order to discuss how this particular lens queries and opens up conversations about the nature of church, and church structures. This essay argues that this is seen in a particular way in how feminist ecotheology speaks from the epistemology of the broken body, reflecting from the structural oppression of gender minoritized bodies living in climate vulnerable locations. What vision or understanding of church arises when we theologise from the perspective of faith based environmental defenders (mostly women) who are often raped or even killed for the work they do? This is cast against the fact that much of this oppression and violence occurs in countries that have significantly entrenched conservative church spaces. How does the body of the environmental defender, willingly broken in order to protect Creation, offer up a, perhaps alternative, understanding of church?
