For many of us, Father’s Day is a celebratory day as we remember and celebrate the joy and care our earthly fathers have showed for us! However, we also know that it can be a challenging day, particularly for those who have lost their fathers or who are separated from their families and unable to celebrate with them. That’s why we’ve created this event: it is an opportunity for anyone who does not have a place to celebrate Father’s Day, or for anyone for whom Father’s Day can be particularly difficult. You are welcome to join us for a lunch after church: there will be some opportunities to reflect and celebrate fathers near and far, share about the challenges the day can present, and play some games/enjoy community together. Bring your own lunch and we will father at 12:30 on the 16th!

We’re calling all Midtowners & friends to connect and come cool off with some water play at Edison Park. Mark it on your calendar!

There isn’t any shade around the splash pad, but bring a canopy if you have one and we’ll make our own shade. Chairs and/or blankets to sit on are also encouraged. You can RSVP directly to Elizabeth at 623.910.3322

Join us for our annual congregational; we will have space for updates on our session, nominating committee, financial details, and a presentation on what’s next at Midtown in the next year! Plus - lunch is provided! Don’t miss out; please sign up on our website so we know how much food to get!
