Knox Presbyterian Church, Midland, has changed location for the fourth time. The Presbyterian congregation, which dates back to 1874 has sold their current location at 539 Hugel Ave. where they have worshipped since 1903 and have moved to 248 Midland Ave. as of February 1, 2024.
In February 2024 the Presbyterian congregation is planning to lease a building on Midland Ave. that is more suitable to their needs. Their current building, which seats over three hundred people in the sanctuary alone, has grown too large and costly to repair and maintain in a post-covid era of shrinking Church attendance and rising costs of living.
Nevertheless, the congregation remains optimistic about the future and is eager to begin a fresh ministry in their new downtown location. The congregation remains committed to vibrant worship and passionate community involvement motivated by the love of Jesus Christ. The Gift of Grace Soup Kitchen, run by the congregation and community volunteers, will be relocated to a new space as well and will continue to serve meals every Tuesday to the hungry in our community.
We invite you to join the Knox congregation for worship at 248 Midland Ave. All are welcome!
