The Boise Vineyard was on the front page of the Idaho Statesman today. The link is only free for 7 days so I’ll give a snippet from the opening of the article here:
VINEYARD EVANGELICALS TEND THE GARDEN, TOO
Evangelical Christians at Vineyard Fellowship in Boise bring their trash to church on Sunday for recycling.
They spend summer weekends pulling invasive weeds in the wilderness and rebuilding mountain trails. Vineyard-sponsored workshops teach members how to reduce pollution.
Sunday mornings, Pastor Tri Robinson preaches about the love of Jesus Christ, God’s struggle with Satan — and the danger of global warming. For Robinson, the church’s environmental stewardship is a calling, like the Vineyard’s worldwide mission to serve the poor and operate its free local clinic."The Lord is speaking to this church right now, I’m convinced," Robinson said.
The Boise Vineyard is a church of about 2500 members with a heart for serving the community and the family of God.
