IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) - Here's what you should know to start your Tuesday.

1. Every member of a church group from Pocatello that was stranded in Israel, is now home and safe.

The last 3 members of the group flew back into Pocatello last night. 

2. A public forum will be held tonight regarding an update on the Idaho Falls School District 91 levy dispute with the Idaho State Tax Commission.
