Nikki McKenna
Director of Family Ministries
Nicole grew up in Oakwood, OH, just a stone's throw away from the University of Dayton. She has four children: Cierra (24) lives in California, DJ (18) is a student at Ohio University, Naomi Truth (11), and Victory Reign (8).
She graduated in 1993 and worked in retail management and then later in the property management industry. She eventually left the corporate world and operated four Christian schools for 12 years. It was some of her most rewarding, challenging, memorable and life-transforming ministry service she has been a part of to date.
Nicole completed her bachelor's degree in education, has completed seminary and a master's degree in church leadership. Currently she is earning her doctoral degree in chaplaincy and leadership from Regent University's online program. She will graduate in May 2024.
The opportunity to serve youth and families here at CHPC is one of answered prayer for Nicole. She deeply loves the word of God, wholeheartedly believes in the absolute power of prayer, and unapologetically follows the leading of the Holy Spirit! These will be the core components as she leads and guides our CHPC youth as they grow and flourish in their life journey while discovering the brilliant plans God has for each of them individually and collectively.
