Launched in 2021 as a young adults’ group, The Mids (affectionately known as “The Hotel California of NPC”) has evolved into a unique and inclusive community for those navigating life between high school graduation and senior adulthood. Unlike traditional groups that are geared specifically toward various demographics or interests, The Mids is designed to meet people where they are: whether that’s single, married, child-free, parenting, newly relocated, or figuring out what’s next.

This group isn’t defined by a specific life stage or checklist. Instead, we come together around shared values: friendship, faith, laughter, and a sense of belonging. Some of us are flying solo, others are raising kids, and some are somewhere in between. What we have in common is a desire for connection.

We gather on the last Tuesday of each month at rotating locations around town. Our time together includes fellowship, Bible study, and a variety of fun, casual activities tailored to the group’s interests. There’s no pressure, no perfect attendance required, just real people who want to do life together.

As the song Hotel California says, “You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.” Our “Hotel California” group captures the idea of a space that feels warm, inviting, and almost charmingly inescapable. It signals that once you become part of our group, you’ll feel at home. So, if you’ve ever felt like you’re in a transitional or undefined phase of life and want a place to grow in faith while sharing laughs and making friends, this is the group for you. Come join us for faith, fun, and friendship. For more information, please contact the Church Office at npcadmin@newnanpres.org.
