Don Moon

Raised on a farm in southwest Iowa, Don gave his heart and life to God at the age of seven at a youth camp. At 16, he felt God calling him to serve overseas as a missionary and joined WGM to answer this call in 1984. “The goal of my personal life,” Don wrote in his missionary application, “is to live a life that is pleasing to God.” And that’s what he sought to do with his wife, Glenda, throughout his 40 years as a missionary.

For 27 years, Don and Glenda served faithfully in Argentina. They returned to the U.S. in 2003 to serve at WGM headquarters, and then God called them back to Argentina in 2009 to train other missionaries. When Glenda passed in April 2022, Don continued serving in leadership with WGM.

Don retired from WGM in June 2024, but he has ambitious plans for his retirement. One of these plans is riding his bicycle across the U.S. He is also looking forward to spending time with his grandchildren and focusing on specific ministry projects, including Business As Mission through Lunar Consulting and Design, LLC. He continues to cling to the promise of Psalm 46:1, “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble” (NIV).
