Melanie Schelling

It all began 25 years ago when I embarked on a journey with State Farm, starting as a claim handler and gradually growing into roles as a trainer, team member, and ultimately, an Agent. Throughout this journey, my heart has always been tied to the local communities of Pana and Decatur. There’s something truly special about ChristianCounty and Macon County—the generosity, kindness, and unwavering support of the people here create an environment that I am proud to be a part of.

Decatur and Pana are more than just places on the map to me. They are home. With their reasonable housing, stunning lake, and vibrant live entertainment, they offer a quality of life that is both enriching and fulfilling. But what truly makes these communities shine are the people, the connections, and the shared moments that bring us all together.

As a mother to three incredible daughters and a former foster mom to ten more wonderful children, my life has been filled with the joy of caring for families. Supporting young girls is a passion that runs deep in my veins. Whether I am managing the Upward Sports Volleyball program, volunteering with the Central Illinois Girl Scouts, or mentoring my daughters' friends, I am dedicated to empowering the next generation of strong, confident women.

In my free time, you can find me cheering on a softball game, exploring new travel destinations, or soaking up the music at a concert at the Devon. These moments of leisure are the perfect balance to my professional life, where my team and I are committed to providing exceptional service to our State Farm insurance customers.

At our office, we take pride in assisting those moving to Decatur, Forsyth, Mt. Zion, Pana, and the broader regions of ChristianCounty and Macon County. We offer comprehensive quotes for State Farm auto, home, and life insurance, ensuring that our customers receive not only great value but also the confidence that comes with knowing they are well-protected.

With three notaries on staff and a team trained in property, casualty, life, and health insurance, we bring years of State Farm experience to the table. Our mission is simple: to help people. And it’s a mission we live by every single day.

So, whether you’re a long-time resident or new to the area, we’re here to welcome you, support you, and provide the exceptional service you deserve. Because at the end of the day, it’s all about community, family, and making a difference—one policy at a time.
