Mission in Our Core

Glen Mar has mission in its core. Each Glen Martian strives for their mission. The Mission Fair was the place where we glimpsed its scope. There were 13 tables in the gathering area. Fourteen different ministries were present on that day. I had heard of the works of Glen Mar people even before I came to Glen Mar. The Mission fair, therefore, was the visible testimony for me to see the variety of Glen Mar’s involvement near and far to love neighbors and communities. The ministries that had their tables on the Mission Fair were:

  • Gift Card Ministry
  • Ames UMC (Resurrection Sandtown)
  • Social Justice Small Group
  • Wish Upon A Star
  • Cold Weather Shelter
  • Journey to Bethlehem
  • Day of Service
  • Jewels for Hope
  • Operation Christmas Child
  • Success in Style
  • Steps of Hope
  • Home of Our Own
  • Sleep in Heavenly Peace
  • Habitat for Humanity

Glen Mar’s love for people through service goes beyond this list. The best way to feel the exuberant life of the church is to get involved in service because that’s the expression of love.
