And I will need to get the proper file path to the correct file in the global template, since I can't just reference the template containing the content itself.

Are your users using your custom UI or just the resulting document?
They are creating documents to go to someone else using your Custom UI?

If in code, you refer to ThisDocument instead of ActiveDocument it gives reference to the file holding the code.

Global templates go in the Word Startup Folder. I can give you code to identify this folder if you need it.
? Application.StartupPath in the Immediate Window identifies it.

Here is a macro

Code:

Sub ShowStartUpPath()
  ' Macro written by Charles Kenyon 2014-02-25
  ' Shows setting for Startup Folder location in Microsoft Word in a message box.
  '
  MsgBox _
    Prompt:="Your StartUp folder location is " & _ 
      Application.StartupPath & _
      "." & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & ".", _
      Buttons:=vbOKOnly, _
      Title:="Current Startup Folder Setting Information"
   '
End Sub
