SPECIAL NOTICE In the wake of recent efforts by white supremacist groups to recruit in the Pocatello area, the Administrative Council of Pocatello First United Methodist Church has issued the following statement: “The Pocatello First United Methodist Church opposes (the efforts of) white supremacy groups in our community. As a church we embrace diversity of persons, proclaim the dignity of all human beings, and promote Pocatello as a hate-free community.” Pocatello First UMC supports the work of the local group, 2Great4Hate, to raise awareness of issues of bias, hate crimes, and celebration of the diversity of human cultures and ethnicity around us.
