They enjoy diversity, hiking, bicycling, kayaking, canoeing, sports, reading, music, drumming poetry, and being together with friends and family. They love living in Durham.

Chuck Goeller is the Administrative Director of the United Campus Ministry. Chuck is also a singer, musician, and songwriter with diverse musical tastes. He spent three years here at the University of New Hampshire as a wildlife major and now attends St. Joseph's College in Standish, Maine where he is working on his Bachelor of Arts in Theology.

Chuck's main interests lie in the area of music ministry, exploration of Biblical texts in relation to today's society, and the ministry of hospitality. He is a firm believer in the fact that when you walk through the front door of the United Campus Ministry, you should feel safe, invited, free to express your views, and ready for a good laugh.

Chuck is an avid entertainer and enjoys singing and playing in the New Hampshire, Maine, and Northern Massachusetts area. He can frequently be found singing at weddings, funerals, worship services, restaurants, coffee houses, and in his own shows around the area.

Chuck's greatest love and joy is a group called Monday Night Special. He is the co-director of this group that seeks to provide a night out for the developmentally disabled folks in the Seacoast area. Each week, 30-50 developmentally disabled people enjoy activities such as dance night, bingo, crafts, dinners, and yes, Chuck even sings for them from time to time.
