Doing a new thing... The Presbytery of Boise The Presbytery of Boise consists of sixteen churches. Along with our sister presbyteries in Kendall and Eastern Oregon, Boise Presbytery is undergoing a major shift that will result in a new structure, a new staffing plan, new mission funding approaches and a new budgeting process--to name just a few of the new things that are beginning to emerge. As the entire Snake River Mission Area transitions to a new way of life as three independent, cooperative presbyteries, it is exciting to see new life taking shape. While we may not entirely know or understand the details of what our future will look like, 2008 will find us strategically mapping out those details and moving into that future--all while trusting in God's faithful guiding hand. God is indeed doing a new thing in Boise Presbytery, and God will bless and guide us all along the way!

Mission Statement: A practical seminary designed to serve churches throughout the Treasure Valley to equip, enhance and encourage lay people to deeper involvement in church leadership.
Seminary Without Walls serves the church at large by training lay people for stronger and more in-depth leadership roles in the church. There are three tracts in the program: academic, practical and spiritual. Since Seminary Without Walls serves the mission of the church and not a particular denomination, these courses are taught from the perspective of the historic creeds of the church.
