On November 6, New Hope Christian Fellowship, GCI’s congregation in Eagle Rock, California, bid fond farewell to their lead pastor, Glen Weber and his wife Connie. Glen is retiring from employment as a GCI pastor and the couple has moved to the Denver, Colorado area.
Reflecting on his last day as a lead pastor, Glen wrote this on his Facebook page:
After 43 years and 5 months, today is my final sermon/service as a full-time pastor. We will ride off into the sunset to Denver (Aurora) and see what new opportunities await us in my retirement (Connie will continue to work for another couple years.) Thank you to all of you out there that have shared and impacted our lives!!
Here is a video produced by his congregation giving tribute to Pastor Glen and his wife Connie:

Congratulations Glen and Connie! May God richly bless you in this new chapter of your lives! Ray and Carol Meyer
Glen, my wife (Cathy McGee) and I met you at the “Dig” in 1972. Thanks to both of you for your service in the Washington State area (Spokane, Vancouver) over the years. The best to both of you in this next phase of your lives.
Pastor Glen, I miss you already. I thank God for the opportunity to have known you and worked with you. God bless you and Connie as you begin the next chapter of your life and ministry.
Congratulations to you both on reaching this milestone! You’ve served many, many years!! You deserve a rest; but knowing you, we suspect you will both continue serving in other ways in Colorado! God bless!
Your old(?)friends,
Gordon and Candace McKill
All the best, Glen and Connie, in your retirement. May you have good health and happiness in the next phase of your life.
Bricket Wood seems so long ago.

In His Service,

Congratulations! Many blessings to you.
Glen and Connie, Congratulations (?) on your retirement. Even though I moved away from the area several years ago it was always nice to receive your e:mails regarding what was going on at New Hope. I’m sure you’re looking forward to spending more time with family and friends in Colorado. Tom and I send you our love.
Glen and Connie,
Thank you for the love and service you have given to so many over the years! Blessings and love from all of us in the Saginaw and Flint MI. congregations!
From memories of years ago to your retirement–how time has flown! Enjoy whatever retirement you will have, but if you are like me, you will still be going after 52 years. Wishing you both God’s blessing.
David and Margaret.
Glen and Connie,
Since our time together in Bricket Wood, you have left a wonderful example and legacy of service and now we wish you fulfillment and happiness together in this new phase of life sometimes called “retirement” but often just as busy. May God continue to bless you both and others through you.
