The students thoroughly enjoyed Melvin's performance. They, along with myself, were entertained, laughing, and learning the entire presentation. I would definitely recommend Melvin to any person looking for a speaker for students. "I want to thank you for connecting us with Melvin Adams. He was absolutely fantastic! He not only had the rapt attention of the student body, but he also had the entire audience "hanging" on his every word! Of course, he was entertaining, but more importantly, his message was direct, unapologetic, and challenging. His stunts served to validate that the rest of his message was true. Melvin achieved a level of communication no other baccalaureate speaker has attained: the students gave him a standing ovation when he finished! During the reception following the service, he was swarmed by students and parents alike--each seeking a brief moment with a person whose commitment to his God came through in his genuine interest in each individual." "Melvin Adams had the Groton Youth Rally of six hundred people and the daytime school assemblies literally mesmerized with his basketball tricks, humorous antics and dynamic testimony. He shared about his life of basketball and how it had taken first place in his life. But then Melvin taught the students that God needed to be his top priority, if he ever wanted to be a success and have peace. Melvin has a gift of bringing out the best of any person and making them feel like a million dollars! He spent time with the youth and even had a game of one on one basketball with one special boy he met. At least one hundred youth and some adults came to accept Jesus Christ as their savior that night. Groton will never be the same since Melvin Adams brought the gospel here to our little town! " "You touched many lives --both young and old-- that evening. You received rave reviews from many of the people in attendance that night. I even heard people talking about you a couple of weeks later who weren't even there...and saying POSITIVE things, too! It was so cool to see how many kids flocked to you afterwards...wanting to speak with you, get your autograph and rub your shiny bald head!" "Melvin was outstanding! Certainly at the very top of our list as the best there is as a keynote speaker, Melvin made us think, he was entertaining, and he motivated us to care for all our kids. Melvin made our day extraordinary for the special volunteers and staff in Cy-Fair ISD." WOW! He is awesome. The kids loved him and the members of the staff are still talking about him. One paraprofessional was talking to me just a few minutes ago about how she liked him so much because Melvin interacted with the students. Another person said that one little boy was still glowing over the celebrity name that Melvin had given him. Thanks!
