Foundations in Genesis of Idaho/Oregon

Foundations In Genesis of Idaho/Oregon, also known as ‘FIGI’ (pronounced fig-ee), is a science organization that hosts adult & children's science seminars and geological field adventures. By bringing in scientists who are experts in their fields, FIGI Seminars and Field Adventures offer fascinating information and cutting edge evidence which encourages critical thinking and an understanding of factual science which is key no matter whether a person chooses to interpret the evidence from either an evolutionary or a biblical perspective.

"WE BELIEVE that the origin of matter and all basic types of living things, including man, came about through direct creative acts of God during the six-day creation week described in Genesis." (from  What We Believe)

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." from The Holy Bible: Genesis 1:1

“For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible---all things have been created through Him and for Him.”   Colossians 1:16

“For in six days the Lord made the Heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them...”  Exodus 20:11

What does science tell us about the scriptures above?  Did everything begin evolving billions of years ago after the big bang or are we living on a young earth created by God?

Please join us. Our seminars are lay people friendly and are offered at no charge.  Our geological field adventures consist of local one day trips and camping expeditions and costs are minimal. Check out our website for a history of our past seminars & Field Adventures and for upcoming events.
 

UPCOMING FIGI 2012 SEMINARS AND FIELD ADVENTURES

June 30th Saturday: Fossil's of Lake Idaho participants will have the opportunity to hike, perspire, study and collect varied types of fauna and flora remains that previously lived in post-Flood Lake Idaho. Sediments deposited by Lake Idaho make up much of southwest Idaho. This will be a long day of traveling back-roads to view exciting locations of fossiliferous geologic layers.

August 15, 16, & 17: "Astronomy IN the Bible" seminar presented by Diego Rodriguez in Emmett, Boise, and Ontario.

August 18-19: Field Adventure 'Rockin In The Stars' at Bruneau Dunes State Park located 18 miles SW of Mountain Home ID. It is the site of North America’s highest sand dune, and has a wonderful collection of telescopes for viewing the heavens. Breath-taking astronomy and geology will be the focus of presentations and study. Astronomy & Geology at Bruneau Sand Dunes will be taught by Diego Rodriguez & Brent Carter.
