Shining His Light Through Special Events

At the age of 15 years old, Melissa Minter was called into children’s ministry by God and her mom!  I believe her mother’s words were, “You’re old enough to teach this class.  You can do it!”  God had already placed in her heart a desire to teach children, and He began to prepare her for a life of ministry.  Melissa has a B.S. degree from Lee University in Math and Science and a Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction.  She’s had the privilege of teaching in public schools in both Tennessee and Georgia, as well as, a mission school in Greece.  It has been her joy to serve on the ministry teams of five different churches, and she is currently the children’s pastor at Central Community Church in Chatsworth, GA.  Several years ago, she began to shift from a life of education to a life of ministry.  Melissa still teaches science to homeschoolers, but her greatest joy is being able to introduce children to the love of Jesus.
