Deaconess Marissa serves as Director of Youth and Parish Education and Director of Social Media Marketing. She graduated from Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne in August of 2022. She has a bachelor's degree in Youth and Child Development with an emphasis in programming, and an associate degree in Early Childhood Education. She knew from a young age that she wanted to work with children and as a child of two LCMS rostered church workers she grew up watching their service to the church, so serving in children's ministry became a natural next step. Marissa and Andrew were married in February of 2020. They have been blessed with two children Clarice and Theodore.
