Glenwood United Parish is located on North Highway 29, at the
top of the hill overlooking Lake Minnewaska. Our Beautiful site was donated by
Grant Hustad and son, owners of several local farm implement dealerships. Our
current building was constructed in 1977, with a new narthex added in
1990
Our congregation represents the 1971 union of Glenwood United Methodist Church(founded in
1881) and Union Congregational United Church of Christ of
Glenwood (founded in 1885)
Earlier, members of the Presbyterian Church in Sedan had joined Glenwood
Congregational Church and members of the Grove Lake United Methodist Church had joined
Glenwood United Methodist Church , both in 1966
We are proud to be aligned with both the United Church of Christ and
United Methodist Denominations, and find that having access to both the
personnel and institutional resources of two denominations is a great blessing
to us. (members of United Parish are not asked to choose whether they will
consider themselves to be UCC or UMC.)
Many people who've committed themselves to membership in United Parish
have grown up in othe denominations.
