Bill & Glenda Davis
Germany
Bill and Glenda are member missionaries sent out from Hampton Park. Bill and Glenda work alongside the Mutzke family in Heidelberg, Germany, and are involved in both church and school ministries. Bill's church involvement includes preaching, shared teaching of the adult Sunday school class, holding young adult meetings, and biblical counseling.
The Davises both regularly disciple new believers and counsel others. They began a children's church ministry and were able to involve and hand it over to the German believers. A special joy for Bill is helping men in their teaching and preaching in Sunday school, children's church, youth group, young adult meetings, and Wednesday evening meetings. The Davises also work in the organization and execution of the church's summer and winter retreats.
They are extensively involved with outreach ministries through monthly distribution of gospel tracts and other literature in downtown Heidelberg, organizing and participating in school Christmas programs, and monthly nursing home ministries. They oversee hospitality and the logistics of visiting ministry groups or individuals. A special delight for them is involvement in the choir and special programs. They consider it a privilege to minister to students of the University of Heidelberg, Germany's oldest University and home to students from many nations.
Bill serves on the Christian school board, oversees the building maintenance and purchasing, and supports the Mutzkes by counseling and advising teachers and parents. Glenda and the school parents put on the "Teacher Appreciation Banquet" at the beginning of each school year so the graduating class can spoil their teachers royally at least one night of the year.
The Davises have seven children: Heather, Dawn, Crystal, Heidi, William, Anna, and Carolina.
