My name is Melinda Ackerman and I am grateful to be the Director of Children’s Ministries at Carteret Street United Methodist Church “CSUMC’. I have been employed since 2018 and enjoy working with the children and their families here at CSUMC.
Born and raised in Varnville, South Carolina, I attended private and public schools in the Hampton County School District. After high school I attended USC graduating in 1992 and I also graduated from Midlands Technical College in Columbia, SC. I received certifications in advanced activity courses in Geriatric Recreation from Midlands.
I have been happily married to my husband Lou since 2008. We have one beautiful daughter Mary Margaret who has been active in our church since 2013. Mary Margaret was baptized and confirmed at CSUMC. Currently she is involved in the youth program here at the church. Our family and I are so thankful to be part of a wonderful church that teaches our children the love of God through children’s ministry.
