John & Melissa Barberi

Melissa lives with her husband, John, of 20 years and her seven children in Pensacola, FL. With her background in education, she teaches her school-aged children at home. She is a member of Nativity of Our Lord Parish and is the contact person for 40 Days for Life there. Being able to help the pregnant mothers in the Pensacola area in their time of need through Majella House is a great honor for her. She is happy to partner with other members of the community to share the love of Christ with those in need.

John married his bride at the age of 20 and now, 20 years later, has seven children with his wife, Melissa. He works in Information Technology at Navy Federal Credit Union in Pensacola, FL, and volunteers with Family Honor which works to educate children and parents about chastity. John is passionate about efficiency, inspiring leadership, his faith, and creativity. He loves a good debate and spending downtime with his family. Investing time in the founding and continued operations of the Majella House brings him hope for the future of our community starting at the very foundation of society, the family.
