Jacob and Hannah Ouellette are the founding and lead pastors of Thrive Church. They both graduated from Oral Roberts University with degrees in ministry. They had the privilege of youth pastoring for a decade at Cornerstone Church in Highland, MI. While in student ministry, they reached up to 600 teenagers weekly and trained youth pastors around the country. Hannah started a girls conference that reached more than 6,000 girls. As they began to pray about the future, they dreamed of being in a big city and impacting even more people. That city was Denver.
