Shine Ministry
At First Methodist Midland, we believe God created us to AVAD (serve) and SHAMAR (protect and care for) His creation while living in His presence. A special needs ministry is a natural expression of this calling. By intentionally welcoming and supporting individuals with disabilities and their families, we reflect the love and character of Jesus, remove barriers to belonging, and help every person participate fully in the life of the church. A special needs ministry is a way we live out our vision of Returning with Jesus to the goodness of the Garden, serving others, protecting the dignity of every person made in God’s image, and helping our church more fully reflect the Kingdom of God.
