                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Director of Student Ministries

Melaney was born and raised in Joplin, Missouri. She graduated from Ozark Christian College in May 2025 with a bachelor's degree in Student Ministry. In December 2022, she married her husband, Terryle. Together, they enjoy an active lifestyle—playing pickleball and volleyball, hiking, and spending quality time with their beloved pets, their dog Barry and their cat Rory.

She chose to go into student ministry because she wants to see students not only come to know Christ, but also learn how to follow Christ for the rest of their lives, even outside of youth ministry. So many students commit to following Christ at a young age, but they do not live it out daily and often give up on their faith as adults. She wants students to be able to see how important and rewarding walking with Christ daily is.
