Annual Meeting

Nathan Nymeyer, New Executive Director

On January 28 we are having a special congregational meeting in the Worship Center immediately following the second service.  The church board is recommending that we change the job title for Nathan Nymeyer from Director to Pastor.  This does not change his present ministry focus, but does place him on the board of elders. According to our church constitution, this recommendation requires a congregational vote.  If you are a voting member of Glenwood, please reserve time for this meeting in your schedule.  Your presence is very important!

Gospel Project

The Gospel Project for Adults takes men and women on a chronological, Christ-centered journey through the storyline of the Bible. Each week, in the same passages as our children and youth, we will encounter God’s plan of redemption through the study of the Bible’s story, the essential doctrines of the Christian faith, and the call to join in God’s mission locally and around the world. This class is built so that if you miss a week, it’s okay to jump back in the following week.

Pray for the persecuted church

The first and second Sundays in November are widely recognized as the International Days of Prayer for the Persecuted Church.  They serve as reminders of the 100+ million believers worldwide who face persecution for their faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  In over sixty countries, 300+ Christians are killed each month because they follow Jesus. Over 200 church buildings and Christian-owned properties are destroyed each month.
