Community Trunk or Treat – 10/25 6:00-8:00pm

By

Get ready for some spooktacular fun! Join us for our annual Trunk-or-Treat on October 25th from 6-8 PM in the church parking lot. It’s going to be a night full of creative trunks, candy galore, and lots of laughter!

We can’t wait to see you there—costumes encouraged, fun guaranteed!

(This year, several congregations of the Boise Bench have banded together for a “Trunk or Treat Crawl.” Southminster is the final stop of the tour.)

Attention, Members & Friends of Southminster:

Want to join the fun by decorating your trunk? Sign-ups are available in the Narthex, or you can email the church office to get on the list. Not feeling trunk-y but still want to contribute? Candy donations are NEEDED and WELCOME—whether you’re decorating a trunk or just want to help fill the candy bowls!

All leftover candy will be donated to the teachers at Grace Jordan Elementary for their prize boxes. Let’s make this a sweet night for everyone!

God, Gospel & Gender Study

By

Gathering weekly on Tuesdays from 7:00-8:30pm at Red Rock Christian Church now through November 18, five Boise Bench congregations are studying Margie Baker’s book God, Gospel, and Gender. Open to most any age, this study offers something of worth for everyone, whether you’re encountering the ideas for the first time or continuing a lifelong journey of learning. A copy
of the book may be helpful, but not required. Snacks included!

Co-led by the clergy of All Saints Episcopal Church, Red Rock Christian Church, Redeemer Lutheran Church, Southminster Presbyterian Church, and Whitney United Methodist Church.

This study will gather from September 30 through November 18. Participants will be invited to join the wider worshiping community in a Trans Day of Remembrance worship service on November 20.
