All Church Meeting has decided to take Worship outdoors for six weeks starting September 20th. We are currently seeking approval from the District Superintendent.

Labor Day is a time to relax, refresh and renew. Enjoy this day with your family. Be Safe!
Monday Evening Conversations resume at 7pm. All are welcome!
​Amazing Grace-Please continue to support this ministry. Dropoff is located at 16 Stack Street in Middletown,  Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM. If your food is canned, bottled, jarred or shrink-wrapped it is needed! 
Soup Kitchen- taking in fresh vegetables, meats and seasonings!  Sliced bread, lunch meats, canned tuna, as well as protein and granola bars, juice boxes and bottle water.  Personal hygiene items also needed. Monday through Saturday, from 7:00 AM till 1:00 PM, 617 Main St Middletown.
