NEEDS IN THE CHURCH FAMILY AND COMMUNITY

Feeding the hungry: Volunteers are welcome as we prepare and serve up meals for our community!

Outdoor Volunteers: We have several projects in the works here at Midway.  If you’re available to help Dennis out, come by during the week. You’ll get the added blessing of his company!

Rides to church: If you are interested in providing transportation, even once a month, for one or more of our homebound, please let the office know.

DEACON FUND

Just a reminder that we have a Deacon Fund to assist those in our church family who are struggling. You may give to this fund by noting “Deacon’s Fund” on your check or offering envelope. Thank you for caring for and blessing those in need!

COVID PROTOCOLS

We rejoice that we can now worship and sing without masks! For those who want to continue wearing masks for added protection, we encourage you to do so. As our communities recover from the impact of the pandemic, may the Body of Christ at Midway be known for our love for one another!

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE…
