Michelle Ludge

Children’s and Family Ministry Director

Michelle and her family started attending First Covenant Church in 1990. After serving in various aspects of children's ministry for many years, she officially started working for the church the summer of 2005 as our Children's Ministry Director. Michelle has a background in child development and worked in management for a company you may remember, Witmark, for over 10 years. In 2021, Michelle received her ministry license and is now one of our pastors! She is an enthusiastic and energetic member of our staff and loves to have fun and be around people. She is passionate about Children's & Family Ministries and building relationships with students and their families.

Michelle and her husband Eric grew up in West Michigan and were high school sweethearts. They love to spend time with their family and are especially enjoying time with their two granddaughters. Spending time with family and the kids at FirstCov keeps her busy, but when time allows she loves to head to Portage Lake Covenant Bible Camp, read a book or go for a hike!
