Babies To Be

God is blessing our community of faith with the gift of new life through our young families. It is so important that we continue to reach out in love and support to them during the important journey of expecting and birth. Babies To Be is a ministry that provides support for our expectant couples through a Prayer Partner and our Yard Stork ministry.

Are you expecting?
Please call the church (601) 353-9691 and let us know your due date so we can assign you a prayer partner and add you to our Connects Prayer list for Expectant Parents.

Volunteers
We need volunteers from our congregation to keep up with the wonderful gift of growth we are experiencing at Galloway! Please contact Susan Richards  in Congregational Care Ministry if you would be willing to be a Prayer Partner for one of our expectant couples.
Let’s celebrate God’s gift of new life together as we love and support these couples.

Grief Support Group

Grief takes many forms, including the loss of a loved one through death, health issues, caregiving challenges, or job loss. It also encompasses life changes like an empty nest, divorce, retirement, and other transitions. Galloway’s Grief Support Group provides a safe space to process grief with others and to realize you are not alone. The group meets monthly. If you want to attend or need more information, please contact Susan Richards in Congregational Care at srichards@gallowayumc.org or call 601-326-3447.

Funeral Greeters & Ushers

Galloway’s Funeral Greeter and Usher teams gather when there is a funeral at the church. They offer guidance, comforting words, and a friendly smile to grieving families. Team members are informed of the need, time, and location of a Galloway funeral and asked if they are able to serve. If you are available and want to share God’s love in this way, please contact Susan Richards in Congregational Care at 601-326-3447 or email srichards@gallowayumc.org.
