Marisa Wells

Marisa is a Myrtle Beach native and a proud graduate of the University of South Carolina, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 2021. She loves any opportunity to return to Columbia and cheer on the Gamecocks!

Marisa met her husband, Alex, in 2018, and they were married in September 2022. They now live in Conway with their daughter, Emery, and their Aussiedoodle, Penne. As a family, they love Conway’s small-town charm, local festivals, and farmers markets.

The Wells family began attending Wellspring Church in 2021, and Marisa joined the staff as Children’s Ministry Coordinator in 2022. She has a huge heart for helping children become passionate followers of Jesus and ensuring every child feels safe, seen, heard, and loved. Because Marisa was not raised in church, she has a deep appreciation for the lasting impact that a strong foundation of biblical truth and community can have in a child’s life.
