About the Founder

Chantell L. Poole, M.Div.

Apostle Chantell L. Poole is a faithful and consecrated Prophet. Described by many as an urban Prophet, she is known for using the prophetic gift God gave her to minister to the needs of God’s people. God has placed His Word in her mouth for a time like this. In 1990, she accepted the Lord as her personal savior. She received her call into ministry at Blue Mountain Retreat Center in February 1995.


For years, she sought God, preparing herself for where God was leading her. In January 2002, she was ordained Evangelist by Apostle Saundra L. Hagans, the Founder and Senior Pastor of Covenant House of God Church. On June 11, 2006, she was ordained by the International Ministerial Fellowship of Jameson Evangelistic Association Board of Elders. On July 3, 2006, she was consecrated to the office of Prophetess by Prophetess Yvonne Sims of Jacksonville, Florida, founder of The Mercy Seat Ministry, and in August of 2006, Apostle Troy K. Grant, III., Presiding Prelate, consecrated and installed her as Founder and Senior Pastor of From The Throne Ministries Worship Center, Inc. In March of 2019, she was consecrated into the office of the Apostle in the Lord's Church by  Apostle Saundra L. Hagans & Apostle Verl Sewell. 


Apostle Poole’s education includes a Diploma of Pastoral Studies from the Priscilla Institute; a BA in Organizational Leadership from Eastern University (Magna Cum Laude); an MDiv. from Palmer Theological Seminary; she is an APC Board Certified Chaplain, Certified End-of-Life doula, and Spiritual Director. She is endorsed by The Coalition of Spirit-filled Churches (CSC), an incorporated, non-profit "religious endorsing body" ministry; a member of the National End-of-Life- Doula Alliance; and a member of the National Association of Christian Ministers. 


Apostle Poole is also the Founder and CEO of CLE Global Ministries, Inc., which includes I’m A Good Thing Women’s Conference; Lady to Lady Gathering for pastors wives; Kingdom Encounter; The Protocol – School of Ministry; Stiletto Stand Movement, a mentoring program that empowers women of all ages. She and her husband, Bishop T. Ellis, are also the Apostolic covering for Trees of Righteousness Fellowship of Churches, which includes her first church plant, From The Throne Ministries Worship Center. She has authored four books and has ministered extensively from the Tri-State area to cities in Uganda, East Africa, and Nairobi, Kenya. She is truly a woman of God called to the nations.


Apostle Poole is the loving wife of Bishop Ellis T. Poole and the proud mother of two daughters, Jacqueline and Natay, and one son-in-love, Antonio. She is also the spiritual mother to multiple sons and daughters doing great things in the Kingdom of God. Apostle Poole desires to “die empty” of every assignment God has ordained for her life. But, most importantly, her desire is to return the hearts of the children back to God the Father.
