Next, Welton will check in with Rabbi Daniel Fink, leader of Congregation Ahavath Beth Israel in Boise, which meets in the oldest synagogue building in continuous use west of the Mississippi. As a Reform Jewish leader in a largely Mormon and Evangelical Christian state – and for several years, the only rabbi in all of Idaho – Rabbi Fink has a unique perspective on interreligious cooperation in his community. He also reflects on the wonders of Idaho’s natural resources, and the way that his faith background has helped him underscore the importance of protecting the environment.
