Hope City Church has found its new home
SUMMARY: After years of planning, searching, and raising money, Hope City Church is ready for its next phase. Community members recently gathered to view the church's new space and celebrate its future. Senior and founding Pastor Josh Lafy expressed immense joy over the church's progress. Previously, as a setup and tear-down church, members spent 16 months setting up and dismantling their operations every Sunday. Having moved through various locations, Hope City Church is thrilled to transition from a church plant to an established church. They aim to move into their new location on SE Street in Meridian, in the old TND Furniture building, within the next year.

More efficient roofing can translate to lower energy costs
SUMMARY: High temperatures are driving up electric bills, but certain roofing products may help reduce cooling costs. Some roofers offer shingles designed with lighter colors and specific granule placement to reflect sunlight, rather than absorb heat. Partnering with 3M, these shingles improve efficiency. Additionally, a “solar hide” beneath the roof acts as a reflective barrier to reduce attic heat, though it's relatively expensive. Combining these roofing solutions with effective HVAC systems and well-sealed windows can significantly lower electric bills year-round. Lighter colored shingles also help keep homes and attics cooler than darker ones, even with standard shingles.
