About Us
Welcome to the Glendive Alliance Church

Welcome to the Glendive Alliance website.  We are glad that you are checking us out. If you have never been to Glendive it is a beautiful community that is bordered by the Yellowstone river on the West and the Makoshika badlands on the east.   The Glendive Alliance church has been an integral part of the Glendive community for just over fifty years.    From the very beginning when the church met above the old VFW hall till today, one of the overriding passions has been to see lives transformed from the inside out.   Under the leadership of Pastor Melvin Stombaugh, the first church building went up on the corner of Clay Street and Merrill Avenue.  This facility served the congregation well until the late 1990's, at which time it became apparent that a new church would have to be built.  Trusting in God's leading, the congregation built a building that in many ways seemed too big for their current needs.  God honored their faith and has continued to bring new people through the doors each Sunday.

Our church is part of the Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination (www.cmalliance.org).  The Christian and Missionary Alliance is a denomination that is committed to sharing the gospel not only at home but all over the world.

Our Purpose

Simply put, We exist to see lives transformed through Worshiping together, Growing together, and Serving together.

  • Worshiping Together that connects both the heart and the mind
  • Growing Together by investing in one another for the purpose of encouragement and personal growth.
  • Serving Together through daily, small and large sacrifically giving of our time and resources to meet the needs of others, in and out of our church.
  • Creating community fostering an atmosphere where people can meet to develop relationships with those in our community.

     

     
    What to Expect

    When you visit our church you will find a relaxed atmosphere where we are more concerned about you than the style of clothes that you wear.

    We offer two Sunday morning services; the first at 8:30 and the second at 11:00. Both of these services last about an hour and a half.  At these services you will find worship and preaching that are relevant to the world in which we live. At both services there is a staffed nursery available to care for your children.  At the 11:00am service there is children's church for kids from preK to 2nd grade.  The children stay with their parents through the worship time and then are dismissed to children's church.

    Rest assured that you won't be put on the spot, singled-out, or embarrassed. Though we do receive an offering, we don't want anyone to feel obligated to give. We do like to collect some basic information from people in our guest registry, but if you'd prefer not to, that's all right with us.
