Leadership Nominations
One of the principles of our church government is that as a member, you are responsible for choosing the individuals you will submit to and trust to lead you. Because we are a Bible-centered community, we look to the Bible to guide us in how we raise up leaders as we do in everything else in our church.
Our nomination process will be open from July 1-July 31, 2024. Below are two documents to aid you in this process. If you have any questions about our process, please be sure to reach out to a current leadership member.
The Midtown Connection
Midtown’s newsletter will help you connect with the people, ministries, and current events at Midtown.
