Midway Presbyterian Church Pastoral search Committee
Dear Midway Brothers and Sisters,
Welcome to our Pastoral Search Committee's webpage. As our church family embarks on the important search for our next senior pastor, this page will serve to keep the Midway family apprised of relevant and important information regarding our committee's progress. While the contents of this page will not change often, it will be updated periodically as the committee makes steady progress.
Contents of this page will include:
To recap progress-to-date, once the Session learned of Pastor Hall's intent to retire in 2026, the Session called a special congregational meeting on Sunday morning, November 9th, to elect a Pastoral Search Committee. At that meeting, the congregation elected the following seven ruling elders from the Session to serve on the committee: Jimmy Cooper, Paul Fish, Rick Griffin, Scott Keesee, Russ Knight, Brian Washington, and Bob Whitaker.
Shortly thereafter, the committee organized itself, with Russ Knight as chairman, Bob Whitaker as vice-chair, and Rick Griffin as secretary. As you have questions re the committee's work, please address them to our committee members or your shepherding elder.
With much appreciation in advance for your continuing prayers over this important work and for the man Our Lord will lead to us.
Russ Knight, PSC Chairman
