Dale Detweiler

Lead Pastor

 

I have been serving as the lead pastor of Ship Nazarene since May of 2021. Prior to this I was the Associate Pastor for almost 4 years. I am married to Jennifer, and I have 3 adult children, Paige, Lane, Natasha and one grandson, Axel.
I believe God has called me to point people to Jesus - teaching, equipping and empowering people so that they can become part of God’s transforming work in their lives, in their community, in our world. I love interacting with people of all ages but have a special passion for ministry to young adults. Because of this you can often find me on the campus of Shippensburg University.
Outside of ministry, my hobbies include hunting, fishing, being in the outdoors, basketball, volleyball, cornhole, pickleball, and various card games. My favorite time of the year is Fall. 
If you are looking for a church to connect with, I would love to share more with you about Ship Nazarene. You can call or text me at 717 404 8643.

 

DeVona Cordell

Associate Pastor - Kids ministry director

I will start with who I am at home. I have 2 grown children and 2 grandsons (ages 5 & 7) who call me “Lolli”. I also have my elderly mother living with me due to health concerns, My husband of 43 years passed away in May 2023 due to a vehicle accident. My life has gone through many changes and I joined a program called Griefshare. God is still at work in my life and I trust Him in the process.

I am an ordained elder in the Church of the Nazarene and associate pastor in Shippensburg. Some of the ways God is using me is ladies’ small groups, children’s ministry, and I am the Director of our District Ladies Retreat. I participate in weekly worship services and preach on occasion. I continue to support the senior pastor, Pastor Dale by helping wherever I am needed.

I am involved with the New Creation Church plant in Chambersburg. I am on the leadership team and Hunter Prough is senior pastor. We are very excited to get into the community and meet new people. The “New Creation” Church will be centrally located and is ready to share the love of Jesus, build community partnerships, and do life with the people God puts in our path.

Media and Events Coordinator

When I'm not maintaining the events and social media for Ship Naz, you can find me hard at work as a Shippensburg University student. I spend my free time reading, crocheting, listening to music, and playing board games!

I have been a member of Ship Naz since 2019, so Addy (my granddaughter) and I have seen a lot of exciting changes. We can't wait to see where else God is moving! My full time ministry is owner of a group private mental health practice in Chambersburg. I love teaching, preaching, and helping people live into who God has created them to be.
