Missions
Operation Thanksgiving
Operation Thanksgiving is a huge ministry opportunity in our church. Each year on Thanksgiving Day, we minister to the people of Jasper and surrounding areas by sharing a full Thanksgiving meal with over 1,500 people at the Jasper Civic Center. The work starts long before that as volunteers cook and freeze different items in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving all leading up to a day where we can meet people's physical and spiritual needs at one event.
Ministry in Schools
The students of the Jasper City and Walker County Schools are at a pivotal time in the their lives and each day they have 1000's of things vying for their attention. With your help, one of those things constantly vying for their attention is the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are present in the schools by feeding sports teams and band programs, ministering to teachers through supply bags, leading First Priority meetings, etc.
Operation Christmas Child
OCC is a big deal at Glory. In addition to having a huge, church-wide packing party each year where we pack over 500 boxes, we partner with Samaritan's Purse as a drop off location for boxes from churches all over the region.
