missions at cg midtown
We believe every person is invited to be on mission with God. At CG Midtown, we understand our congregational invitation is to, “Join God in the reconciliation of all things with the sacrificial love of Jesus.” We join with God in the following ways:
Care for the Marginalized
Participate in the flourishing of our Neighborhood
Send Church Planters and Missionaries
These three categories influence the selection of our mission partners, mission trips, and volunteer opportunities. Additionally, the mission team seeks to encourage, equip, and release individuals at Common Ground Midtown to understand and pursue their missional callings.

MLK Center
At the MLK Center, everyone has the opportunity to learn, play, grow, and find peace. By embracing the teachings and philosophies of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the MLK Center provides vital individual skills and family resources that allow residents in the Mid-North neighborhoods of Indianapolis to grow and enhance their lives. Their approach helps people of all ages find—and remain on—their own paths to success and stability. Dr. King believed that conflicts can be resolved peacefully. In a committed Beloved Community, conflict ends with reconciliation of adversaries cooperating in a spirit of mutual respect and goodwill. The MLK Center works to make this possible in our culture.
