Dollars from Heaven Idaho pastors write checks to pay for $10,000 of unpaid parking tickets for those who “just ask.” Boise, Idaho – Forgiveness will be in the air this Saturday, December 18th, 2004, in Boise, Idaho, where a cross-denominational group of pastors are going to write checks to forgive the unpaid parking tickets of those who come to City Hall, and simply ask. The pastors will sit at tables outside City Hall in Boise for three hours, checkbooks in hand, and meet lines of people in a kind of modern day parable. Area vendors are donating food and drinks to add to the festive environment. “We wanted to help people understand, in a practical way, that even though we’ve all made mistakes, God’s grace and forgiveness is received, just by asking,” said Montie Ralstin, Pastor of Boise Valley Christian Communion, and president of the Christian Churches of the Treasure Valley association, sponsor of Saturday’s event. The money was raised from local businesses, and will be given on a first-come-first-served basis until the $10,000 budget is expended. (Information and guidelines: www.parkingticketgrace.com) This is the latest media outreach effort by Boise-based church outreach group, Mission Media, which, last year, paid for a Super Bowl ad and cash prize for the winning entry of an amateur “Super Bowl TV contest.” (www.superbowltvcontest.com) About Mission Media: Mission Media, a non-profit media company founded in 1991, produces and airs national quality media on network affiliate TV, radio, print, and billboards, while helping churches work together through innovative events and media, across denominational lines.
