All are welcome to attend the next SAGES Lunch & Learn gathering on Thursday January 15, 2026. Lunch begins at 11:30am, with a program to follow. Pastor TJ will be sharing a high-level overview of The Promise and Perils of Artificial Intelligence (AI), blending ethical conversation, practical tips, and a few live demonstrations.
If you plan to come for lunch, please RSVP to the church office to ensure there’s enough food for all. A suggested donation of $10/person is requested for the meal.
This winter, Southminster is joining with our ecumenical friends in Boise for a shared book study on Borders & Belonging: The Book of Ruth—A Story for Our Times by Pádraig Ó Tuama and Glenn Jordan. Together, we’ll explore the ancient story of Ruth as a lens for reflection on forced migration, faithfulness, and what it means to belong in a world shaped by borders.
The group will meet on Tuesday evenings from 7:00–8:30pm from January 13 – February 17 at Redeemer Lutheran Church (2920 W. Cassia Street, Boise). The clergy of the sponsoring congregations will take turns facilitating discussion. Books are encouraged, and all are welcome—whether you come with deep familiarity with Scripture or simply a desire for thoughtful conversation across traditions.
Join us for The Joy of Music Sunday, where we begin telling the Christmas story through a rich six-song message of music. Southminster’s Chancel Choir and Handbell Choir will lead us in worship with pieces like Christmas Jubilate and Love Came Down at Christmas, paired with the reading from Matthew 1. Come and let the season’s promise come alive through word and song.
Come celebrate Christmas Eve with us as we gather for carols, candlelight, and the hopeful story of Christ’s birth. Whether you’re a longtime churchgoer, returning after some time away, or simply curious, you are warmly invited to come as you are. Bring your questions, your hopes, and your loved ones as we make room for wonder together.
Worship begins at 7:00pm on Christmas Eve. Our church nursery will be staffed and available to receive children (birth through kindergarten) but all ages are warmly welcomed in worship at Southminster (really!).
