During a church service as she was singing, two people received their healing, one being of cancer. She not only sings, but ministers in testimony and the Word of God about the mercy and grace that God has bestowed upon her own life. Miracles such as how God healed her of a broken leg when the doctor said she would never walk again, how God gave her 2 beautiful children when the doctor said she would never be able to bear any of her own, and in Nov. 2007 she almost came face to face with death when she had to have emergency surgery due to intestinal complications. Melissa always has a song in her heart. She has often said, "If I can touch just one person for the glory of God through song, and testimony, it has been worth everything."
