On June 14, two Idaho pastors were ordained to the gospel ministry. Tomm Lemon, with his wife Michelle, pastor the Payette, Cambridge and Weiser congregations. He has also worked at Cloverdale and McCall. Lemon is a third-generation Adventist pastor.

Brian Yeager and his wife Michelle have planted a new church during their time in the conference. They established The Experience four years ago as a church to reach unchurched listeners of KTSY. Brian is a second-generation Adventist pastor. Both fathers participated in the service. The conference is blessed to have both pastoral couples serving.
