Hansel and Ellie Morell
Hansel and Ellie Morell serve as the lead planters of Cedar City Church in Lebanon, TN, a joint church plant between NAM and The Donelson Fellowship (TDF) in Nashville. Both Nashville natives, they spent several years ministering at TDF, where Hansel served as student pastor and Ellie as the lead pastor’s assistant. They have one daughter, Ivy Grace, and are expecting another this June. Since relocating to Lebanon in 2025, the Morells have felt a clear calling to plant a multiplying church in their community, one of the fastest-growing cities in America due to an influx of unreached households from around the world. With a heart to help people find freedom, purpose, and fulfillment in Christ, the Morells envision Cedar City Church as a place where lives are transformed by Jesus and disciples are multiplied for generations to come.
