Midway Congregational Church is a historic church completed in 1792.[1] Located beside U.S. Route 17 in Midway, Georgia, the church and its adjacent cemetery were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. They are part of the Midway Historic District.[2]

Annually in April, the Midway Society holds a service at the church, commemorating the town's 1752 settlement.[2]

The original, colonial-style 1756 church[3] was destroyed by the British during the Revolutionary War.[2]
