Boise First United Methodist Church, more commonly known as the Cathedral of the Rockies, is a United Methodist church located in the historic North End district of Boise, Idaho. The church is the largest United Methodist Church in Boise, the largest in the Oregon-Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church, and was the first Methodist church in Boise, founded in 1872. In 1984, the cathedral served as the location for Senator Frank Church's funeral. In June 2020, the church announced that it would remove its stained-glass window featuring Confederate general Robert E. Lee. The image had been under discussion since 2015 and a decision was made following the murder of George Floyd. The church removed the window and replaced it with a stained-glass window depicting African-American bishop Leontine T. Kelly in 2021.
