History of MFM | Early Days |
|
| Midlothian Friends Meeting started in the fall of 1987 as an outgrowth of friends who were attending Richmond Friends Meeting, and desired to establish a meeting closer to their homes in the 'southside' of Richmond, in the Midlothian area. The group began by meeting in someone's home once a month, while still attending Richmond Friends Meeting at other times. |

History of MFM
| Winfree Years |
|
| In the fall of 1988, the Midlothian group began meeting in the old Winfree Baptist church building after the Winfree Baptists built a new sanctuary. Midlothian Friends were to meet at Winfree for almost 10 years, until July 1997. This was a time of rapid growth in Meeting. |
