About Our Staff

We have a dedicated staff here at Grace to take care of you and your family, led by:

Keith Minier

Keith Minier
Lead Pastor

It’s no secret that Keith Minier is driven, passionate and visionary. It’s also no secret that he loves his family, basketball and the Buckeyes. But Keith’s enthusiasm is more far-reaching than any of those things. Full bio...

Nate Harrison

Nate Harrison
Discipleship Pastor

It’s easy to see why people might think Nate Harrison is a coach. The guy is, after all, known among friends, family and peers as a champion motivator and encourage who guides others toward something bigger than winning or losing. Full bio...

Drew Waggoner

Drew Waggoner
Pastor of Connections & Missions

At Grace Fellowship, Drew Waggoner is usually preaching, teaching, mentoring, singing, laughing, joking or doing some combination of any or all of these things. But most importantly, he can be found in and around the church and local community ministering to and serving alongside others. Full bio...

Erica Shelton

Erica Shelton
Children’s Director

It's not unusual to hear shouts of "Miss Erica!" from every nook and cranny at Grace Fellowship. The fact that the kids adore Erica so much is just a small testament to how generously she gives of her time and talents to God's littlest. Full bio...

Brendan Ross

Brendan Ross
Children's Ministry Assistant

Generous, energetic, upbeat, faithful and hardworking. In some ways Brendan Ross is pretty much the same guy he was in 2005 when he started hanging out here as a high school senior. While his youthful good looks and boyish charm remain unchanged (at least for now!), quite a few other things haven't. Full bio...

Charlie Vansant

Charlie Vansant
Media & Technical Director

He kills it at karaoke, kicks it at the sound board, and keeps up with almost 1,000 friends on Facebook. What else could you expect from a 20-something technogeek whose job is being a media minister? Full bio...

Randy Surface

Randy Surface
Music Director

Randy Surface has had a passion for musical worship since he became a follower of Jesus at a Christian hardcore concert in the 1990s. Since that time, Randy has made himself available to serve, seeking only to inspire and lead others to worship God through music. Full bio...

Adam Towell

Adam Towell
Youth Director

The tall, sometimes playful, sometimes quiet guy walking the halls of Grace Fellowship is none other than Adam Towell, our resident go-to guy. Before coming on staff, Adam served as a Grace Group leader, Sunday school teacher, and worship team member. Full bio...

Beth Shively

Beth Shively
Office Manager

Keeping a growing church organized and informed takes more than first-rate administrative abilities, it takes someone like Beth who honestly loves and cares about people. Full bio...

Debi Renner

Debi Renner
Administrative Assistant

Most people think she’s just a big softie. And while it’s true that Debi has a tender and loving heart, she’s also always up for a challenge. Full bio...

Sarah Surface

Sarah Surface
Administrative Assistant

Sarah Surface is one of those people that’s just a joy to be around. Perhaps it’s her can-do attitude. Maybe it’s her happy countenance. Or it could be her insanely creative mind. Full bio...
