We are thrilled to announce Melissa Coles as the distinguished speaker for Wabash Valley Right to Life’s annual benefit dinner. Melissa’s powerful testimony inspired the box office hit and now international movie, LIFEMARK, which originated from the documentary “I Lived on Parker Avenue” where she reunites with her birth son 19 years after he was placed for adoption. Through her unique perspective as a birthmother, Melissa shares the raw, unfiltered truth of the adoption option, revealing the perfectly imperfect beauty of this selfless act. Her story, a secret for 19 years even from her closest family members, highlights the critical moments that led to her choosing adoption and how her birth son narrowly escaped non-existence. Melissa’s profound heart for God and people shines through her speaking engagements as she supports families in unplanned pregnancies, raises support for pregnancy centers and maternity homes, and speaks for various nonprofit organizations, schools, and churches. With cameo appearances in LIFEMARK rekindling her passion for acting, Melissa now thrives in the film industry and is in the process of writing her autobiography and launching her nonprofit ministry, Life Stories Matter. She believes that sharing your story is the first step to healing, and we are honored to have her share hers with us.
