Impact Track Speaker - Jesse Wells

Jesse has a beautiful wife (Sarah) and 10 year old daughter (Emma) who he loves very much!  He grew up on the east coast in a Christian home and has one brother who is two and a half years older than him.  He graduated from Philadelphia Biblical University (now Cairn University) in 2008 with degrees in Elementary Education and Bible.  

During his college years Jesse spent 3 summers working at an all boys wilderness camp in up-state New York with the mission of building godly young men in a Christ centered environment of wilderness camping.  This is where he fell in love with camp ministry and also witnessed the impact a group of godly men can have in the lives of young men. 

Jesse began his teaching career as a Philadelphia public school teacher and continued in public education when they moved to Sarah’s hometown of Baraboo, WI.  When they moved to China in 2014 Jesse taught at a Christian international school.  Jesse taught full time for 8 years and has continued to be involved in the schools through substitute and periods of part time teaching.  During his time as a teacher Jesse and Sarah were deeply invested in the life of their church being a part of small groups, middle and high school youth group leaders and leading a college age Bible study during different seasons of life. 

Since 2016 Jesse has been on staff at Walnut Hill Bible Church where he has been Youth Pastor and now the Youth and Family Pastor.  He loves the Lord and longs for those he comes into contact with to know that Jesus loves them and is the only hope for their lives.  He has a passion for empowering parents to be active in the lives and spiritual formation of their kids and can’t wait to see what the Lord is going to do with this weekend!
