Mrs. Olivia O’Dell

Olivia O’Dell is our Pre-K teacher. She is a mom of three boys, and has been married to her husband, Derek, for 15 years. Olivia grew up in the public school system, but was transferred to a private school where she learned about God and His love for His children. She left private school and went back to public school to finish high school. Olivia and Derek got married a year after she graduated and started their family right away.

“I feel God has given me such a strong passion and desire to teach kids- to be able to meet them where they are, and to lead them towards what God wants for them.” 

God led Olivia to different ministries to be able to teach kids within their church, and allowed for her to be an aide at the school where her children attend. She was there for 3 years until God led her in a different direction. “I am so excited about the opportunity to be at GCA, to reach these little ones, and pour out God’s love and truths on them.”
