Our Pastor
Pastor Allen and his wife Molly have faithfully served as lead pastors of Praise Tabernacle for 26 years. A pastor’s son from Canada, Allen stepped into ministry over 38 years ago, carrying on a legacy of faith and service. Before graduating college, he met Molly—his wife of 41 years—and together they’ve poured their hearts into building the Church both in Canada and Maine before settling in Rhode Island.
Alongside their ministry, they raised two children, Margo and Levi. Margo is married to Devon Philbrick, and together they have two children, Jet and Petra. Levi is married to Gilannie, and they have three beautiful daughters: Gia, Zoë, and Sky.
In addition to pastoring, Pastor Allen serves as the Rhode Island Director of Christians United for Israel, passionately supporting the State of Israel and its biblical significance. His heart beats to encourage believers in their walk with Christ and to assure those who don’t yet believe that God is not their enemy—but their friend, calling them home.
