Circle Urban Ministries

Today, we honor a legacy of love, faith, and service.

On what would have been their 55th wedding anniversary, we pause to celebrate Dr. Glenn and Lonni Kehrein—our beloved founders and spiritual pillars of Circle Urban Ministries.

Married in 1970, Glenn and Lonni didn’t just commit their lives to one another—they committed their hearts to a community in need. Together, they planted seeds of justice, hope, and reconciliation in Austin that continue to bear fruit today.

Though Glenn is no longer with us in body, his spirit lives on in every child we serve, every life transformed, and every act of compassion offered in Christ’s name. Lonni continues to be a source of wisdom and grace for all of us.

We thank God for their love, their example, and their unwavering obedience to a calling bigger than themselves.

Happy Anniversary, Glenn and Lonni. Your legacy is eternal.

Today is Giving Tuesday, a day to make a real impact in the lives of families in our community. At Circle Urban Ministries, we’re working on transformative projects like Project 843, which will provide a discounted home to help a family build generational wealth, and Project 130, where we’re renovating a 10-unit building to create more housing opportunities.

Our goal is to raise $250,000 to support initiatives like these, and with $120,000 already committed, we’re well on our way. Every gift helps us create safe and thriving neighborhoods where families can grow and succeed.
Join us today and be part of building a stronger future. Together, we can make a difference.
