Welcome Family, Friends
& Friends to be!
A few words...
Hi there! I am soooooo glad you stopped by for a visit.
In a Nutshell: I am currently working as a Missionary in Loma Linda CA (the last place I said I would ever work or live. Doesn't God have a sense of humor?) I've done various "Travel Nurse" assignments here, but my main activities revolve around several young adult ministries. I have many dreams and goals, but my greatest desire is to KNOW CHRIST and to SHARE CHRIST. And my greatest passion is to go to Heaven and take as many people with me as possible. It is my prayer that this passion will supersede all other interest and passions!!

"Life is what you make it, and you will find what you are looking for...so look for the best!" ~ My mom
"God gives His best to those who leave the choice to Him." ~ My daddy
"Give, give, keep on giving, for He gave His life for YOU!" ~ Mel
Pictures are worth a Thousand Words
If you've got lots of time, feel free to browse my photos. I've got pictures up from my time in Guyana with David Gates, trips to Norway, mission trips to Bangladesh, Nicaragua, Egypt, and Kenya, as well as the recent "Set-Apart Retreat" in Colorado with the Ludys. I've also got an extensive FRIENDS collection, so don't be too surprised if you see a picture up there of yourself.
I've got a section called "Sharing time" that contains a few stories and lessons God has helped me through over the last few years. To stay tuned to my daily updates and inspiration, join "Facebook" or you can check out my favorite site of all, Mel's Diary. My sister Sunny got me into blogging back in 2005, and I have to admit, I've kept this site busy every since. Check it out, you might get hooked and start doing it yourself! :-)
Last of all, if you are new to my site, or would simply like to say "HI" again, don't forget to sign my guestbook and let me know you visited! :-)

PS: Feel free to drop me a note ~ I'd love to hear from you! MelodiousEcho@hotmail.com
PSS: The song that is playing is from the album To Live is Christ by the Neblett Family. It's one of my favorite, and I can listen to it over and over again. But if, after you've heard it a few times, you want to turn it off, there's a button at the bottom of the screen you can push! :-)
