This paper presents and discusses the contributions from Wesleyan theology to the theological discussion of sustainability. He lists the three spheres of sustainability (economic, social and environment) with the theological discourse on the economic Trinity, the ecumene and ecology, proposes to interpret the Earth "Gaia" as a sacrament and exploits a feature of Brazilian method Wesleyan theology, the inclusion of creation as a fifth element in the so-called quadrilateral Brazil.
