Mark began his ministry at FBC Searcy in September of 2022. Prior to serving at FBC Searcy, he worked in youth ministry at several churches in Missouri. He also served with K-Life Ministries, Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA), and Kanakuk Kamps. Mark was raised in a Christian home and in the seventh grade, gave his life to the Lord. Mark’s desire is to lead students to love God and others more in their daily lives.
