CURRENT MINISTRIES
TAFT HOUSING PROJECT Collister UMC recognizes the current housing crisis spreading throughout the Treasure Valley. In response, our congregation built two units (3 bedroom 2 bath homes) of affordable housing on church property. To accomplish this, Collister UMC partnered with LEAP Housing Solutions, a local non-profit working to solve the affordable housing crisis in Idaho. Families moved into these homes in October of 2022. See this News Stories for more Information. |
MISSION AND MINISTRY Collister UMC is involved in a variety of supportive efforts for our community. As needs arise in our city, our members step up to serve, to solve problems and to love those in need. Whether it be at our partner school Taft Elementary, or neighbors experiencing homelessness, or non-profits helping Boiseans significantly impacted by job loss, Collister UMC steps up to serve in creative ways. |

MissionThis artwork was created by a woman of color, depicting a woman of color. It is a reminder that the church is not only called to fight individual acts of injustice, we are called to dismantle systems of injustice, the way God dismantled the Egyptian system of slavery and oppression.
