Our Worship

I was born into a Christian family with many generations of believers who walked before me. However, I had to find the way for myself. No one could do it for me. At eight years old, I accepted Jesus as my personal Savior in a Assemblies of God Turner Falls Youth Camp. Then, I was called into the ministry as a teenager. It would be years before I made a complete dedication to the ministry. In 2015, I sold out to God, I gave Him everything: my money, my personal life, my kids, everything I owned, and most of all, myself. I was done with life’s nonsense. As a single professional female, I knew it had to be God’s way or no way. I refused to work for anyone who made their money through alcohol or cigarette sales. Then I closed some doors. There were those who simply could not be in my new presence.

It was six months before I met the one, God’s man for me. Our paths had run parallel all our lives, yet we never met. We lived one and a half miles apart in Ada, Oklahoma, then two blocks from each other in Midland, Texas. We met against all odds; at least, that is how it seemed. It took dedication on his part and dedication on mine for heaven to move for us. It also took my supervisor to invite me to his church so he could win a Sunday school contest; that was a divine appointment!

Mark and I were individually focused on God’s plans for our separate lives. Mark had decided that something was missing in his life before we met. That decision led him to God, then to me.

Mark grew up in a non-faith family. As a child, he was not taken to church or taught the message about our Lord and Savior. In 2015, he was invited to church by a friend. Once he got there, he gave his heart to Jesus. Mark accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Savior, he has been growing in his faith ever since that moment.

As husband and wife, we serve the Lord together in our community, our church, our home, and in New Lines of Faith Ministry. Mark was saved in 2015, and I made my “God’s way or no way” commitment in 2015; we met in 2016 and married in 2017. Our wedding was held in that little church of a simple Sunday school contest. In 2017, Mark and I answered the call to ministry as a married couple. Best decision ever! ~ Mark and Glenda

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
