Glenn Balzer, Pastor
Glenn is the Pastor at First Mennonite Church of Denver.  His dream for FMC is that we become a place that figures out how to filter people in.  It is our differences that make life and church interesting, full and fun.  I married by college sweetheart in 1986.  Together we have raised two boys.  Their oldest lives in Chicago and their youngest has followed his journey in reverse and now lives in British Columbia, Canada.

 

Anita Miller, Faith Formation Administrator
Anita has been involved in First Mennonite’s faith formation programming since 2000.  Most recently she developed curriculum and materials for kids 5th grade and younger.  Her goals are to provide a variety of opportunities for youth to learn about the Bible, build relationships with each other, and practice serving the world.  Anita grew up in First Mennonite and is excited to make the church relevant for the next generation.  She and her husband have a teenage son and a teenage daughter.
