He has graduated with his Bachelors of Theological studies from Central American Theological Seminary (SETECA) and will begin his Master's degree through Dallas Theological Seminary. Melissa was a former missionary in Colombia, developing a children's ministry outreach program consisting of Bible clubs, kids rallies, ESL, orphanage work, and multiple discipleship groups.
