This Sunday, we celebrated and prayed over five graduates: Eamon Murray, Peyton Coggins, Trent Davis, Emily Collick, and Chase Jenkins. From high school graduations to college and even a master’s degree, we’re thankful to celebrate what God is doing in each of their lives. 🎓🎉

We also wrapped up our "O.T. Jesus" series with “Prophet Jesus” from Deuteronomy 18 and Mark 1. We reflected on how the prophets weren’t simply predicting the future, they were painting a vision of God’s kingdom. In a world where art is often reduced to entertainment, scripture reminds us that artistic expression matters deeply to God. Nearly a third of the Bible is poetry, filled with imagery, songs, and prophetic imagination meant to shape how we see the world and the God who is redeeming it. ✝

One of the reminders from Sunday was this: the first step in following Jesus is to imagine something different than what we currently experience. To imagine hope beyond the headlines. A kingdom unlike this world. A community marked by grace, peace, and restoration. What would it look like for you to imagine the kingdom of God differently than the world around you this week? 🤔

Family Worship Sunday is this weekend! 🎉

That means kids will be joining us in the sanctuary and there will be no Mid Naz Kids Church during service. We genuinely love these Sundays when our whole church family gets to worship together in one room. Wiggles, whispers, giggles, snack requests, dropped crayons—all of it is welcome here. ❤️

Need a little help keeping busy hands occupied? We’ve got busy bags available by the Connect Wall before service! Can’t wait to worship together ⛪

Some moments are hard to put into words. 💜

This weekend’s Grit Your Grief Run the Runway 5K + Kids Color Fun Run was joyful, meaningful, celebratory, and deeply moving all at once. We watched people run, walk, laugh, cry, and remember loved ones together and it was an honor to be part of it.
We are grateful to partner with the Children's Grief Center of the Great Lakes Bay where no one grieves alone.

Over 30 people from Mid Naz showed up to volunteer, run, cheer people on, and support families walking through grief. Thank you to everyone who came out and made the day so special. We’re already looking forward to doing it again next year! 🏃💜

Yesterday, we gathered and celebrated. 🎊 What a blessing to dedicate 9 children to the Lord! ✝💙 We also reflected on God's faithfulness throughout the past assembly year at our church and heard so many inspiring stories. Nearly 1,000 individuals attended services at Mid Naz this year, including more than 200 first-time guests. Every number represents a person known and loved by God. Pastor Justin reminded us that Jesus doesn’t lead us back to the past, He leads us forward into the future. We ended the service encouraged to go and share our own stories of where we’ve seen God at work in our lives.

If you missed Sunday, you can still catch the full service on YouTube or Facebook. We’re thankful for what God has done and excited for where He’s leading us next. 🙌

This Sunday, May 17, we’ll be holding our end-of-year church review and voting for new leadership team members. During the service, Pastor Justin will share highlights from the past year, the current state of the church, and celebrate all that God has done and is doing among us. If you are a church member over the age of 15, you are eligible to vote. We encourage all members to be present for this meaningful Sunday as we honor the work God has done and step into the future with faith.

If you’re not yet a member but are interested in taking that next step, save the date for the next Starting Point class on September 12. This is a great way to learn more about who we are, what we believe, and how to get connected at a deeper level.

This Sunday is Mother’s Day and we recognize this day can hold a lot of emotions. For some, it’s a day of joy and celebration. For others, it brings longing, grief, or complexity. We want to acknowledge both with care. No matter how you walk in the door this Sunday - you are seen, loved and welcome in the house of God. 💗⛪️

This Sunday we will worship King Jesus as we always do. 👑✝️

This Sunday in our "O.T. Jesus" series, we explored "Redeemer Jesus" through Ruth and Romans 3:21–31. Pastor Justin reminded us that in the world of Ruth, redemption was not just about paying a debt. In that culture, redemption meant restoring an outcast back into the family and bringing someone on the margins back into belonging. Ruth’s story shows us the high cost of that kind of commitment. But it also points us to something greater.

Jesus is our true Redeemer. Through His life, death, and resurrection, He took on our sin and shame so that we could be welcomed into the family of God with dignity and honor. Redemption is not merely transactional. It is relational. It is the invitation back in.

For those carrying a history of rejection, this is the good news of the gospel: your story does not have to end there. In Christ, your story of rejection can become a story of belonging. 🏠💗✝

This Sunday, come worship with us and be reminded that God’s story has always centered on Jesus. ✝📖

Through every promise, every prophecy, and every page of Scripture, we see a plan that was in motion from the very beginning. Our "O.T. Jesus" series is helping us discover how the Old Testament points to Christ and how that truth still shapes our lives today.

Join us this Sunday as we worship together, open God’s Word, and grow in understanding of the Savior who has always been at the center of it all.
