Rachelle Hippen

Rachelle is a Family Medicine physician who has always had a passion for working with the underserved.  She received both her undergraduate degree and her medical degree from Georgetown University, and spent a semester abroad in the Dominican Republic studying poverty medicine and Spanish, writing her thesis on childhood malnutrition.  She met and married her husband during medical school, and after completing their residencies, they moved to her husband’s hometown in Southern California, where Rachelle spent four years working as a physician in the National Health Service Corps, serving marginalized populations in both rural and inner-city communities.  During her time in California, Rachelle also served on the Board of a non-profit organization whose mission is to support families affected by childhood cancer.  Once she and her husband got pregnant with their third son, they decided to move back to Pennsylvania, where Rachelle is from, so that the boys could grow up closer to extended family and so Rachelle could focus on being a stay-at-home mom.

Rachelle and her family moved up to the Lehigh Valley in 2019 after her husband took a job with St. Luke’s.  They welcomed their 5th son in 2020, and in 2023 Rachelle felt the Lord’s prompting that their family needed more time to grow in love and faith together, which led to her decision to homeschool her boys.  In 2023 John and Rachelle, together with the boys, made the decision to become a foster family, and in May 2024 they welcomed their then two-month-old foster son into their family.  More than two years later, they are all so very grateful for the countless blessings and boundless joy that this miracle baby has brought to their lives.  In spite of his many physical and emotional challenges, he continues to remind everyone of the importance of trusting in the Lord to provide all that we need to accomplish His work, and of the need to start each day with an “If not me, then who?” mentality.

When not homeschooling the boys and chasing her energetic toddler around the house, Rachelle spends much of her time supporting her boys’ budding baseball, soccer, and musical careers.  While it sometimes feels like every minute is literally spoken for, Rachelle feels eternally blessed to be able to make the choice to homeschool, and to be even more involved in the boys’ journey of faith by serving on the Board of Providence Hybrid Academy.

Joe Yannuzzi

Joe has been a disciple of Jesus Christ for the past 48 years.   He has since served in multiple pastoral roles, most notably a 20-year tenure at Calvary Chapel of Phila, where he taught children’s ministry, led youth and was used by the Lord to establish the first Junior High ministry. Later he served as the lead pastor in Quakertown, at Dayspring Christian Fellowship. Described by colleagues as gregarious, outspoken in encouragement, unflappable, and joyfully worshipful – Joe brings a warm, passionate presence to the team. He works well in diverse groups, values differing perspectives, and deliberately nurtures trust.

As a former youth pastor and children’s ministry leader, Joe deeply values investing in students – not as future church members but as today’s church.  He found PHA’s spiritual atmosphere compelling and was personally encouraged by the strong witness of both staff and students. The unity and camaraderie of the PHA community impressed him deeply. 

Joe recognizes PHA’s strengths in cohesion, trust, mutual support, and dependence on the Lord.  He resonated with its vision of faithful, sustainable growth and is committed to preserving the school’s mission-driven focus.  He brings strategic insight – particularly around facility use and future growth considerations – and a spiritual grounding that aligns with PHA’s values.
