GLENWOOD MORAVIAN

Welcome! I’m Rev. James Heroux and I have been the pastoral leader of the Glenwood Moravian Community Church since November of 2023. I grew up in the Sturgeon Bay Moravian Church before attending UW-Stevens Point to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration.  In 2018, I graduated from Moravian Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity and was ordained as a deacon of the church.  I have been consecrated as a presbyter of the church, the second order of ministry in our denomination and an affirmation of your calling.  

​

Serving in a congregation brings me great joy because of the many ways I get to walk with people in this journey of life. No two days are the same, but love is always there to be shared. I feel called to serve in the Moravian Church because community, inclusion, and hope are essential in our ministry. We welcome people wherever they are on their spiritual journey; making space for their questions and doubts while making the unconditional love of Jesus tangible in their lives. Throughout our history, Moravians have been known for bringing people into God's embrace in bold ways, and I am encouraged to see this work continue here at Glenwood. 

​

My family loves life here on the west side of Madison. My wife Alli is a PA at UW Health and we have a 2-year-old at home. We enjoy walking through the neighborhood, visiting parks and coffee shops, and you will likely find me running on the bike path or through the Arboretum.
