Mark served as a marine engineer in Japan, and while there, endured a motorcycle accident that took him to Hawaii. There, the Lord’s selection and provision for him began on December 1st, 2001. That transformation has resulted in a life of servitude to Jesus Christ and His Church. Mark has been teaching and discipling men since then, starting in Japan, Bahrain, and now San Diego. Mark received a Master’s Degree in Biblical Studies from Southern California Seminary and now serves as a deacon with Grace Fellowship of San Diego. Mark has partnered with his wife, Barbara, as teachers of God’s word throughout their time as Christians and continue running the race as servants.
