Glenda was born on January 2, 1957, in Marshfield, Missouri, to the late Thomas Leland and Donna June Cantrell. She grew up in Missouri, graduating from Niangua High School. She then went to Iowa and attended Vennard College, earning her Bachelors in Bible and General Education. On July 28, 1979, she married the love of her life, Donald Lee Moon. Together they had four daughters. Glenda began working with World Gospel Mission in March of 1984 and has spent the last 38 years sharing the Gospel. She was previously a member of Faith Country Chapel in New Castle, Pennsylvania, and had recently been attending Hanfield United Methodist Church. She enjoyed sewing, singing, traveling, hiking, and collecting rocks since she was a little girl. She ministered in Argentina (a country she deeply loved) for over 30 years, became fluent in Spanish, and formed many deep friendships.
