2025: A Year We Will Always Remember

As we look back on 2025, our hearts feel full. This year was not just about organizing events or filling calendars. It was about people. It was about connection. It was about creating spaces where culture, faith, family, and friendship could grow together.


Every gathering, every rehearsal, every meeting, and every shared meal became part of a bigger story. A story of a community that continues to show up for one another


Bahasa Indonesia Class Program

Throughout the year, our Bahasa Indonesia classes became a place of growth and belonging. From regular classes and the June session to field trips, blog projects, and our Earth Day activity, students experienced more than language lessons.


They explored their roots. They built confidence. They learned that language carries stories and identity. Seeing students speak, laugh, and connect through Bahasa Indonesia reminded us why this program matters so much.


Happy Lunar New Year 2025

We stepped into Lunar New Year 2026 surrounded by warmth and laughter. There is something special about celebrating the end and beginning of a year as a community.


We reflected on how far we have come, prayed for what lies ahead, and shared simple but meaningful moments. When the countdown reached zero, we were not just entering a new year. We were entering it together.


Culture & Heritage Exhibitions: Sharing Who We Are

Indonesian Cultural and Heritage Day and Blossom Together at the Idaho State Museum were moments of pride.



We wore traditional clothing, shared performances, and introduced Indonesian culture to the wider community. These events were not only about showcasing traditions. They were about honoring our history and sharing it with open hearts.

Religious and Cultural Holidays: Faith and Reflection

Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, Ceng Beng, and Eid al-Adha 2025 reminded us of the beauty of faith and remembrance.


We gathered in reflection, gratitude, and generosity. Each tradition carried values of compassion and community. These celebrations brought comfort and strengthened our bonds.


AAPI and Cultural Diversity Celebrations

Through the AAPI Celebration, World Village Festival, and Day of Dance, we stood proudly among many cultures.


We danced, performed, and shared our heritage with others. In those moments, we were reminded that diversity is a gift. Being part of a multicultural community enriches us all.

Celebrating Indonesia’s 80th Independence Day and the Fourth of July gave us space to honor both our heritage and the country we live in.


We celebrated freedom, resilience, and gratitude. We are proud of our roots and thankful for the opportunities around us. Holding both identities is something we cherish.

Sports Event: Indo Idaho Badminton Tournament

Our Badminton Tournament brought energy, laughter, and friendly competition. Beyond the games and scores, what mattered most was the togetherness. We cheered for one another, encouraged one another, and strengthened friendships.

Echoes of the Soul became a space for reflection and expression. Through writing and creativity, voices were heard. Stories were shared. Emotions found words. This project reminded us that art can connect hearts in powerful ways.


Grateful for Every Step


2025 required effort, teamwork, patience, and commitment. It required volunteers who stayed late, families who showed up, and leaders who carried responsibility with care.


We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this year possible. Every participant, every supporter, every volunteer, and every friend played a role in shaping this journey.


This year was not just a series of events. It was a collection of moments that strengthened our sense of belonging.


As we move forward into 2026, we carry gratitude in our hearts and hope for what we will build together next.


Thank you for being part of this story. 🤍
