Discover Southminster – 8/23 at 6:30pm

August 1, 2022 By TJ Remaley

Pastor TJ will be hosting a “Discover Southminster” gathering on Tuesday August 23 at 6:30pm in the narthex. Those who have been visiting Southminster or who are thinking about joining our membership will find this to be a great opportunity to explore our questions and callings together.

If you’d like to join our congregation as a member, an affiliate member, or even as a remote member (attending primarily online), this gathering will be especially informative for you!

To attend, please RSVP to Pastor TJ, or contact the church office.

Backpack Drive

July 28, 2022 By TJ Remaley

Since 2001, the Presbyterian Women of Southminster have held an annual backpack and supply drive for local elementary schools and the Boise/Ada County Housing Agencies. Through the years, the reach of this mission has grown from 50 backpacks to now over 500 backpacks annually!

Want to help?

Presbyterian Women will be gathering at the church on August 2 and 3 from 9:00am-12:00pm to organize, tag, fill, and prepare backpacks for distribution. You are welcome to join.

This year, with prices skyrocketing, expenses are expected to exceed the funds available from grants and Bazaar proceeds, so the team is also in need of additional financial support. Checks made payable to “PWS Backpack Program” can be submitted to the office, in the offering plate during worship, or given directly to PWS Treasurer Priscilla Oja.

Thank you again for supporting this important mission project!

New Mission Project: Grace Jordan Food Pantry

June 27, 2022 By TJ Remaley

The session unanimously approved and is excited for Southminster to help stock a nonperishable food and household essentials pantry for Grace Jordan. The counselor at that school sends 18-25 bags of items home with families every week during the school year!! We have been given so much through God’s abundance so too let us share our abundance with others.

Below is a list of ongoing items that will be needed. There will be a cart in the Narthex for collection in an ongoing fashion starting in July. We’ll also make a special request for items or monetary donations on communion Sunday — the first Sunday of the month. (If people want to make a monetary donation please indicate on the check memo “Grace Jordan Food Pantry”)

CAPS: Come and Play at Southminster

May 31, 2022 By TJ Remaley

Every second Saturday from 9:00am until noon, Southminster is hosting CAPS — a new opportunity for parents and their young children to have playdates at our church campus (indoors and outdoors!).

There’s no church agenda… just an opportunity for free play-time with friends. There’s free WiFi for parents while children play outside, in the playroom, and on the playground.

Coffee, snacks, and juice are provided!

(Note: This is meant to be a parent and child playdate, not childcare. For this reason, a guardian is required to stay for their children to attend)
