Melissa White is a Speaker, Missionary, Children’s Evangelist, and Children’s Ministry Coach. She was called into the ministry at a very young age.  In fact, she held her first children’s revival at the age of ten during one of her parent’s crusades.  She took her first children’s pastor position while attending Central Bible College (CBC).  Melissa’s love of people and her passion for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ has opened doors for her to minister in 18 different countries on three continents in all types of ministry.  Over her 40+ years of ministry, she has held positions of youth pastor, children’s pastor, worship pastor, and evangelist, in addition to being the Youth and Children’s Ministry Coordinator of AFCENT International Chapel – NATO in the Netherlands.  Even though her unique testimony has given her opportunity to minister to people from all walks of life and of all ages, she is especially called to children’s ministry. She has conducted conferences for effective children’s ministry for Compassion International – Kenya and the International Christian Assembly in Bangkok, Thailand.  She has also taught seminar classes at CBC and held children’s ministry workshops across the United States.  Although she is willing to answer the call to do whatever is necessary to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, her passion is empowering the local church to invite and grow children in relationship with Jesus. She especially is drawn to facilitating small churches by teaching them how to use their resources, however limited, to create an effective and relevant children’s ministry program.

Melissa is currently living in Ozark, MO. She is married to MAJ Adam J. White, PA-C. She has two identical twin sons, Michael and Maurice, two beautiful daughters-in-love, Courtney and Erica, and most recently has been blessed with an amazing grandson, Benaiah.

God has performed many miracles in Melissa’s life to bring her to this place and time.  Her heart’s prayer is that God will be glorified in everything she does and says.
