Part 02 - We're so excited to share once more with our audience a great friend to Philadelphia Gospel Movement and to the City of Philadelphia, Tucker Else.

Ministry Director | Willow Grove | Serving Leaders Ministries

Tucker joined the ServingLeaders team in 2021 with a diverse background in pastoral care and ministry leadership, after spending the previous five years as the Ministry Director for Christian Union at the University of Pennsylvania. Serving as a Chaplain at Penn provided an opportunity to disciple, train, and connect young Christian leaders for a lifetime of ministry. During this time, Tucker also served as a College Pastor and Teacher at City Line Church in Bala Cynwyd.

Prior to coming to the Philadelphia area, Tucker served as the Pastor at Denver Baptist Church (Iowa) for seven years. Tucker’s heart for the Church and for church leaders was enhanced through the relationships nurtured during this season of ministry. His passion remains to serve Christian leaders both in the local church and parachurch ministries.

Tucker’s role as Ministry Director of the Willow Grove Hub is an important step in the plans to continue expanding the capacity and geographic reach of ServingLeaders through new “Mission Hubs.” Seeing the need for relational proximity, Serving Leaders Ministries wants to plant Hubs in new geographic regions with Ministry Directors who will each be a leader of leaders, on the ground connecting, equipping, and encouraging pastors and ministry leaders; a shepherd of shepherds, who will pursue and befriend leaders while developing and leading a team of ministry and counseling staff that can walk alongside leaders and shepherd their hearts.

Tucker earned a BA in English literature from the University of Northern Iowa, a Juris Doctorate from Drake University Law School, and an MDiv at Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri.

Tucker and his wife of a quarter century, Marchelle, are Iowa natives but happily count Philadelphia as home. The Else’s (with their four kids) reside in Ardmore with their oldest two attending university in West Philadelphia. Tucker enjoys reading, watching college football, drinking coffee with his oldest daughter, going on adventures with his boys, and surfing with his youngest daughter. Tucker is also working on his first novel.

Please welcome our friend Tucker Else.

We're so excited to share with our audience a great friend to Philadelphia Gospel Movement and to the City of Philadelphia, our special guest Pastor Mark Novales.

Pastor Mark was born in East Chicago, Indiana in 1972. He and the love of his life, Wanda, married in 1996 and are the proud parents of two amazing sons, Mark and Joseph. Pastor Mark retired as a Major in the US Army after twenty-six years of service in 2016. He is a graduate of Excelsior College and received his Master’s in Divinity from Missio Seminary. Wanda has served as a teacher and school administrator for over 20 years. In 2008, Wanda founded a renowned charter school in Philadelphia where she served as CEO and school principal. She received a Bachelor's in Early Childhood and Elementary Education degree from Temple University, Master's degree in Education Leadership from Cheyney University and Superintendent's Letter from Arcadia University. Pastor Mark and Wanda are convinced that God will use their gifts, passions, life experiences and pain to reach the city of Philadelphia with the message of hope and healing. After realizing many goals, Pastor Mark believed that God had something “greater” in store for him and his family. He always felt that God was calling him to be a pastor, but was unsure on how to proceed. After losing his best friend in a tragic accident in 2009, he began to hear the call of God once again. He answered that call to plant a new church during his last year of seminary. After much prayer, the Lord sent a mentor (Brian Bolt) to help him in the church planting process. In February 2013, Pastor Mark and his family began hosting a Bible study for a small group of people in their home. That group continued to grow and on September 15, 2013 CityReach Church was officially launched at Northeast High school. Two years after the launch, the church took a huge leap of faith as they purchased a historic theater in the Tacony section of Philadelphia. Over the last 9 years, the CityReach family has had the honor of seeing countless people’s lives transformed through God’s grace, love, and power. Pastor Mark believes that CityReach church was born to empower people to discover their purpose and live out their God given destiny He believes that this church will multiply and influence our city and region. As you are reading this, please know that the best is yet to come as you choose to seek Jesus and His kingdom first! "Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God."Psalm 92:13
