Meet the Founder

Hi, I’m Melissa!

Looking back I could have never imagined being where I am today. For years I was living with such heavy burdens due to the effects of my own sin and those committed against me. I was numbing my body through various unhealthy outlets to keep deeper feelings of loss and grief at bay. It felt like there was no way out of my hidden life of sin. After a series of hardships in my personal life and then early marriage, I was brought to my knees in desperation. I prayed for freedom and by miracles, God took it beyond my measure! He overflows our lives with His abundant love when we finally let go and let God in. With time, help, and intentional steps forward- God brought me out of the grave and into the promised freedom He offers each one of us.

There is nothing I love more than my vocation as a wife and mother, connecting with others over real conversations, and most of all- Jesus. He is my true lover, my forever spouse, and the man of my dreams. I cannot wait to share more with you about all He has done for me!

My hope for you is to find rest here, knowing you will be supported. Whether in a video you watch, a post you read, or a connection you make with the team- we invite you to come and live The Abundant Catholic life you are made for!
