An open and affirming community, seeking a caring and just society.
Hearts & Hands is a creative, intergenerational gathering where kids and older adults play, craft, and connect—giving parents/guardians a chance for a quiet morning, a breakfast date, or a well-earned break.
The craft is a guided activity… no artistic experience necessary!
Join us! Saturday November 15 from 10:00am-Noon in Cana Room.
Y’all come for our Holy Hoedown—Saturday, November 9! We’ll gather for Sabbath Worship at 5:00pm (with a hoedown theme!), then head straight into a church-wide dinner, dancing, and games at 6:00pm.
The meal will be provided, and everyone’s invited to bring a dessert to share. Want a ride to and from church that night? Contact the church office.
Whether you’re a seasoned two-stepper or a first-time line dancer, there’s a place for you on the floor. God has brought us into a beloved community, and this hoedown is a fun way to celebrate that good and gracious gift.
All ages welcome. Casual attire. Friends and neighbors encouraged!
The Adult Education study for October and November is “What Does the Lord Require?” led by Shana Woodbury, our Commissioned Ruling Elder. This study based on Micah 6:8 will explore the meaning of acting justly, loving mercy, and
walking humbly with God. Participants will delve into the context of the verse, its implication for daily life, and how it connects to broader biblical themes. Participants can expect time for group discussion and brainstorming of practical applications.
Adult Ed. meets on Sundays following worship at 11:00am.
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!
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.
