Pastor Glenn and Shelia have been at Westhaven since 2021.  Glenn is originally from New York City but came to Portsmouth in 1976 as youth pastor at the Alliance Church on Portsmouth Blvd.  He met Shelia, who at the time was teaching at Western Branch High School and they were married in 1978.  In 1980 they moved to Thailand and served as missionaries there for 8 years.  In 1988 they relocated to Malaysia where they worked as dorm parents and teachers at Dalat School, a school for missionary kids from all over Southeast Asia.  In 1997 they moved again, this time to Black Forest Academy, an MK school in Southwestern Germany, working mainly in the boarding program.  After 12 years there they relocated to Toledo, Ohio where for 12 years Glenn worked as the Community Life pastor.  Glenn ministered at Westhaven first as interim pastor, then associate pastor and now lead pastor.
