To ALL the many Veterans in our Church body we THANK YOU.

Blessed be to the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.  My lovingkindness and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer, my shield, and the One in whom I take refuge, who subdues my people under me.  Psalm 144:1-2

Thanksgiving Dinners

Do you have a neighbor, friend or family that you know that could use a Thanksgiving Dinner this year? Since we cannot meet at the Fairgrounds as in years past we’d still like to provide these for those who are not able to do so.

You will have to pick these dinner’s up for delivery (the church is not delivering these)

The meals will be available in the Fellowship Hall the week of Nov. 16-20th, 8:30am-4:45pm.

Please email or call the Church Office if you have any questions. 208-773-7100.

The heart behind this event is to provide a simple but rich opportunity for the body to enjoy Christ centered fellowship in an atmosphere that encourages families to really get to know each other outside the 4 walls of the church. Along with a fun camping experience for all, there will be time set aside for us to share some meals and to be encouraged in God’s Word and worship.

Important! When we talk about this being a “Family camping opportunity” we aren’t suggesting it’s only for the typical family unit, it is for our entire church family! Basically, if you are reading this, you are invited! (ages 0-117!)
