Meet Melissa
I grew up in Dallas (Oak Cliff specifically) in a non-believing home. My mom was actually Jewish so I am one of the tribe! I met Jesus my freshman year of high school at Windy Gap Young Life camp – literally the best week of my life. My YL leader remains one of my spiritual heroes because he loved me through my “turdy” phases and kept on showing me who Jesus is and modeling Christ’s unconditional love and grace. Pretty sure I was called to minister God’s love to folks ever since I became a believer; more recently, though, God has given me this sweet opportunity to minister to His women in Frisco and I am so excited to get this party started!
My husband, Guy, and I married in 1993 and have a Longhorn daughter (Riley), an Aggie son (Chase) and a lovely daughter-in-law (Emily). We all love the mountains and we also like to make and try all sorts of food together. After teaching third graders for 23 years, I am stepping into a new career and am trusting in the Lord to guide my way. Please pray for me as you read this!
