The February 2015 Haiti G.O. Team had a wonderful trip building relationships (and buildings). Be sure to check out their updates on the Glenwood Facebook page or at the links below:
High School Students are invited to attend the Winter Retreat on January 9-11 at Eagle Fern Camp. The brochures are available in Room 305 (High School room upstairs). The cost is $85, and the deadline to sign up is January 4. Please contact Nathan Nymeyer at 571-3300 or via his contact form for more information.
Please join us for a 6 week study in the book of Judges studying the life of Gideon. Gideon by Priscilla Shirer reminds each of us that our weakness is God's strength. Gideon's story involves far more than a wet fleece and a battle won with 300 soldiers. His epic victory actually tells of one man's struggle with his own weakness - and the One True God who transformed it into triumph.
The Haiti G.O. Team has been hard at work this past week and has shared daily updates! Check out their stories and pictures at glenwoodcc.org/goteam.
This is the sixth year that Glenwood has funded a party for the students of CENV in Merger, Haiti. Each child is given a small gift; in addition there are games and singing. Parents are invited, and everyone receives a hot meal. If you would like to contribute, make your check out to Glenwood and designate it Fund 26306/Merger Christmas.
How would you like to complete our 2014-15 Children’s Ministry team? Consider serving as a mentor/team leader to three eager senior high students in the third hour two year old class. For more information, contact Nancy Jackson or Tim Furnanz via email or at the church office (571-3300).
The Harvest Carnival is around the corner! You’re invited to an evening of fun activities for children and families on Friday, October 31, from 6:00 to 8:00, in the auditorium. You can help make it a sweet evening by bringing bags of candy and placing them in the Candy Can located in the Foyer.
If you would like to be involved (or would like more information), please see the inserts located in your Sunday morning bulletin or contact the Children's Ministries office (571-3300).
We continue to grow in our relationship with ministries in Haiti, as well as partnering with leaders individually. We were privileged to host Wadestrant (Wawa) & Josette Jean-Baptiste and Johny & Rosadite Philippe the last weekend of September, 2014.

Discovery I Class ~ This is the first in a series of classes that introduce Glenwood Community Church (our mission, people and ministries) to you and help you evaluate if Glenwood is the place God would have you fellowship and serve.
