Boise Pride – September 18-20

September 1, 2026 By SPC

The Boise Pride Festival is back at Ann Morrison Park September 18–20, and Southminster will be there in full force — with a booth at the festival and our beloved puppet float in Sunday’s parade.

Our Booth
Find us Saturday 9/19 from 11:00am–6:00pm and Sunday 9/20 from 10:30am–5:00pm. We’ll be handing out free stickers and flags, and inviting visitors to write or draw on our white sheets. It’s a simple, joyful way to tell our LGBTQIA neighbors: you are beloved children of God, and this church means it when we say all are welcome.

We need hands for setup, booth staffing throughout the weekend, and takedown Sunday evening.

The Parade
The parade steps off Sunday, September 20, at 10 am — and our puppet float has become a crowd favorite two years running. We need people to help assemble and decorate the float, walkers to join the procession, and (this is the big one) a truck and a driver willing to pull the float.

How to Help
Sign-up sheets are in the narthex, or reach out to Abby W. or Judy E. directly. Let’s show Boise what it looks like when a church means its welcome!

IMPORTANT: Worship Schedule in September
For this month only, our monthly Sabbath worship service takes place on the third Saturday of the month (Sat. 9/19 at 5:00pm). Here’s the worship schedule for September:
• Sept 6 at 9:30am — Worship
• Sept 13 at 9:30am — Worship (not sabbath weekend)
• Sept 19 at 5:00pm — Sabbath Worship (note: special date)
• Sept 27 at 9:30am — Worship
Thanks for helping us stay flexible and faithful… and for showing up with joy whenever we gather!

Summer Sermon Series in Worship

June 28, 2026 By SPC

You probably know the stories. You learned them with felt boards and flannel graphs and maybe a catchy song or two. But Sunday school had to leave some parts out! This summer in worship, we’ll be going back for a closer look at the stranger details, the harder questions, and the endings that don’t resolve the way we remembered. Join us as we take a look at what Sunday School didn’t teach.

  • July 11 – The Story of Creation (Genesis 1-3)
  • July 19 – Noah (Genesis 6-7; 9)
  • July 26 – David & Goliath (1 Samuel 17)
  • August 2 – The Syrophoenician Woman (Mark 7:24-30)
  • August 8 – Jonah (Jonah 3:10-4:11)
  • August 16 – The Laborers in the Vineyard (Matthew 20:1-16)
  • August 23 – Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10)
  • August 30 – Mary Magdalene (Luke 8:1-3; John 20)
