Pastor Dan Jordan

Lead Pastor

Pastor Dan has served as Pastor at Xenia Grace Chapel since 1980. He is a graduate of Ohio Christian University. Dan and his wife Pam have two grown daughters (one married and one living at home finishing a degree.) He has served for many years as coordinator of church planting in the church denomination and as Assistant District Superintendent.
 
In his free time Pastor Dan enjoys such hobbies as restoration of his 1937 Ford Coupe, visiting car shows, and classic vehicle swap meets, enjoying sports, and auctions.
 
Pastor Dan feels it is a privilege to be the Pastor of Xenia Grace, and to have put down roots in Xenia, while raising their family. In many ways, he feels his ministry has just begun because there are so many people to reach out to and show God’s love.
 

Chris & Kellie Berlean

Worship Directors

My name is Chris Berlean and I hail from the great city of Canton, Ohio. I was born and raised in the famous town of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and consider myself a loyal football fan to the Green Bay Packers! Actually, though I am quite fond of the Packers, I consider myself an ever greater fan of baseball and my loyalty reigns with the greatest baseball team to ever play the game…The New York Yankees!
In all seriousness, I do love sports, however, there is nothing I love more than Christ and bringing hearts closer to Him. I am married to my wonderful wife, Kellie, of 12.5 years. We have three beautifully spirited daughters, Emma Grace (11.5), Abigail Faith (10) and Olivia Hope (5).
 
I completed my degree in Youth Ministry in 2004, just two weeks before Kellie and were married. We spent the first few years of our marriage leading worship and youth ministry together. My most recent ministry opportunity, lead me to working alongside a great man, to assist in his television ministry. Our family moved to Miamisburg in July of this year, as Kellie received the role as Principal of an elementary in Dayton.
 
For the past year, I have truly felt the Lord calling us back into full-time ministry and believe God has called our family here to Xenia Grace Chapel to minister and serve alongside each of you. We are blessed with the opportunity and look forward to everything the Lord has planned in His journey.

Andrea Funk

Children’s Director

Hi, I’m Andrea (On-dree-uh) Williams. I graduated from Ohio Christian University in 2018. I have a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and minors in Youth Ministry and Biblical Studies. I have my local pastoral license with the Churches of Christ and Christian Union.

My parents are Darrell and Eva Williams. I have one older brother Joshua and two younger sisters Amanda and Anna.  Also, I have an absolutely adorable cat named Moo. I enjoy spending my time with my family. I love doing anything creative and I thoroughly enjoy being outdoors.

My overall number one passion is ministry. God has been preparing me, my whole life, before I even knew it for ministry. When I was 15 ½, I felt God calling me into youth ministry. My Youth Pastor was pouring into me and my family. Showing me how God and Jesus loved me more than all the wrong decisions I was making or than all the worthlessness I was feeling. He spoke truth into my life that God not only loved me but God had a plan for me. God’s plan for my life was to spread love and the truth to other teens like me. Over time, God revealed more of His plan to me and not only gave me a heart and a passion for teens but for kids and their whole families. I love the Lord with all my heart and I’m so excited to see His plans  continue to unfold.

I’m so glad the Lord has led me to Xenia Grace Chapel. I’m looking forward to seeing God move and bless the Children’s Ministry and the church. I’m extremely excited to be doing the will of the Lord and building His Kingdom!

 Rejoice always,  pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.                                              1 Thess. 5:16-18

Cherie Klotz

Daycare Director

I have been in child care for over 17 years. I began working in child care by operating a licensed daycare out of my home for six years. I then continued working in child care as room a lead for child development centers for the military. During this time I received my certificate in Early Childhood Education and then pursued my Bachelors of Science in Management.
 
I have been married to my husband, Kent, for over 23 years and we have two wonderful children; Zacherie (22) and Brittany (20).
Romans 8:37 says that “we are more than conquerors through him who loves us.” When we feel like life is attacking us God reminds us that he created us to be conquerors.
