The community is invited to attend the morning service and help the congregation honor Reverend Shelton. The Second Baptist Church is located at 1724 Tremont Street in Lincoln.

Rev. Shelton through the years has not only been a strong leader in the church, he has also been a strong leader in the community serving on the Lincoln City Council for a period and being highly involved with the Logan County Emergency Management Agency and the Emergency Telecommunication System Board.

Rev. Shelton has also invested his time in promoting higher education, working each year with the Joyce Kinzie Memorial Scholarship Program and participating in the annual Scholarship Breakfast held at Lincoln College.

Known for his broad smile and quick wit, the Rev. Glen Shelton's love for his church and all mankind makes him a genuine asset in our community. His lovely wife Ginger supports him in all his efforts.
