OUR PASTOR

Dan Robelen

Thank you for taking a moment to look at our website and allowing me to introduce myself!


As a pastor, I desire to make a difference for eternity by living and teaching the Word of God and by helping others do the same. I'm honored to have the opportunity to do that here with Dexter Gospel Church.


I received Christ at a young age, and I was raised by a Christian family in fundamental Baptist churches in Virginia. After dedicating myself to full-time Christian service during a summer at the Bill Rice Ranch, I attended Pensacola Christian College. There I met my wife, and there I really began in ministry.


After marriage and a master's degree, my fledgling family and I moved up to Staten Island, NY, where I served as an assistant pastor. The Lord then led us down to North Carolina, where I served first as an assistant, then as a senior pastor. From North Carolina, the Lord directed us here, and for nearly ten years now, we've been serving together with wonderful people here in Dexter.


Speaking of wonderful people, my wife is Wenonah, my oldest daughter is Anna, my son is David, and my youngest daughter is Lydia. Our children range from college down to middle school, and we are all involved in the church in some way.


When I’m not in the pulpit or the office, you might find me with a fishing rod or on a wrestling mat. I’m a chaplain and public affairs officer in the Civil Air Patrol, and I also enjoy reading, music, gaming, photography, and occasionally dabbling in some old or new interest with my children.


I'd love to get to know you too, so feel free to get in touch with us! If there's any way I can be a blessing to you, please let me know.


Thanks again!


Pastor Dan
