Dani Martin, a third-generation Floridian, has passionately pursued educating and enriching the lives of children, none more so than her four extraordinary children. A former public-school educator turned homeschooling parent of almost 20 years, she takes immense pride in their education, drawing from her own academic pursuits, including a master's degree in secondary education from the University of Florida.  Blessed beyond measure as the wife to an Air Force pilot, the Martin’s lives have been one of constant movement. These frequent relocations have made the community found at Chapel at the Beach all the sweeter.  Dani is profoundly thankful for God’s patience and faithfulness in every moment, but especially on Saturday’s while watching Gator football.

Casey moved to the area in 2007 from Alabama. She and her husband, Bryan, quickly became involved with The Chapel at the Beach.  Her role consists of accounting, website and social media management, and organizing anything required behind the scenes. Casey likes to stay busy as a local business owner and helping in any way at the Chapel. They have two daughters, Draven and Kylie.

Jon moved from Atlanta and has been involved with the Chapel since 2007.  He has served on the Leadership Team for several years.  He and his wife, Claire, have two sons, Mason & Christopher.

Tom and his wife Joan returned to Florida following a 38 year career in the retirement service industry that took them to Dallas, Boston and Atlanta.  They grew up in the Jacksonville area, however, after vacationing here for 10+ years, they fell in love with the beaches and beauty of the area and this is now their home!  The Chapel quickly became their church home and they love the mission focus and wonderful people who have become family!

They have a heart for family focused short term missions and small groups where community is formed and nurtured. While in Boston Tom and Joan attended Grace Chapel in Lexington where they served in short term missions and Tom was very involved in Men’s Ministry.  In Atlanta they attended NorthPoint Community Church where they served in short term missions, lead starting point groups and were small group leaders. Following NorthPoint they attended Passion City prior to making their move to 30A. 

Tom and Joan host a small group that meets in their home and Joan plays the keyboard in the worship band. Tom is now a realtor and Joan teaches piano which has always been her passion.

They have been married for 43 years and have been blessed with two beautiful daughters, 2 wonderful son in laws and 5 precious grandchildren!

Tom became a believer in Jesus Christ at the age of 36. The journey has been exciting and he looks forward to continuing to run the race!

Ben and his wife Lorri have been married since 1985, having been college sweethearts at Pepperdine University in California. They first attended the Chapel in 2005 when they traveled from Louisville KY to vacation in Seacrest. The Chapel was their family’s “beach church!”

Ben and Lorri raised three boys: Keith (wife Alex and their amazing daughter Max), Trent (wife Kristen) and Reid. Ben ran a sports merchandising company and the family attended Southeast Christian Church.

In 2022, they permanently moved to the 30A area and quickly made the Chapel their new home church.
