One Service | Worship & Serve

On December 29 we will have one service at 10:00 AM with an opportunity to serve side by side. There will be several ways you and your family can help to serve others in our community while in worship at Midway.

This will be a casual worship service, so PJ's for the kids (and adults) are welcome.

One of our projects will be to build Break Bags for Meals by Grace. Please consider donating the following items before 12/29; Cereal boxes, peanut butter (16oz), jelly (18oz), shelf stable milk, meal in a can (15oz), canned soups (10.5oz), canned meats (5oz), snack bars, fruit cups or applesauce, Ramen Noodles

These items can be dropped off on Sunday December  22, or Christmas Eve on the 24th. You are welcome to bring by any of these items Monday through Thursday to the church office.

2025 Estimate of Giving

If you have not had a chance to engage with Midway by submitting a 2025 Estimate of Giving form I want to encourage you to consider doing so.

Your estimate for 2025 helps our finance team plan accordingly for ministry and mission for Midway in the coming year. Your giving also allows us as a United Methodist Church to continue our focus on making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

Please prayerfully consider how God is inviting you to engage in this life of this church by completing the attached form.

Blessings,
Pastor Jason
