Do you care deeply about God’s beautiful creation around us? Here is a chance for you to help the Idaho Fish and Game Department restore wildlife habitat on a site burned by last summers' wildfires. Saturday March 28, the Bitterbrush planters from Hope will go into the Boise foothills for a day of planting native shrub seedlings on the Padock Fire near Emmette and you are invited to be part of it. Bring your own pair of gloves, water, and a lunch. Everything else will be provided. No experience is necessary. Idaho Fish and Game experts will train us. We will carpool from church.

Caring Conversation Series

Caring Conversation Series

Are you or someone you love involved in caring for another person? Caregiving can take many forms and happen in many ways. It can be shopping for groceries for a neighbor, driving a loved one to a medical appointment, or providing support for a short or long period of time. You may be helping someone who needs round the clock care. You may be spending more and more time dealing with medical issues that are affecting a loved one. The person receiving care may live close by, or be many miles away.

Most of us will be caregivers at some point in our lives. Sometimes this is expected, and sometimes caregiving happens suddenly as the result of an accident or illness. There are many physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of caregiving. The January 17 HOW TO BE A RESILIENT CAREGIVER conversation will provide an opportunity for a faith based discussion of caregiving, time to share stories of caregiving, and an opportunity to build resilience through prayer and fellowship.

Blue Christmas

Blue Christmas

A Blue Christmas service offers people a sacred space to not only remember their loved ones who have passed, but also to name their losses and griefs from the previous year, or maybe to recognize their disappointments or loneliness or fears. It is a refuge, of sorts. A way to acknowledge that they are not alone in the midst of their hurt. That others are hurting, too.
