In 2019, Mark founded Take Hope Ministries. Its purpose is to share the gospel worldwide. When the Covid shutdown grounded my ministry, Mark pursued and completed a Master of Arts in Christian Apologetics at Houston Christian University.

When Covid restrictions were relaxed, Mark added ministry visits to Kenya, Burundi, Rwanda, Ukraine, and Pakistan. This ministry has been transformed by the experiences in Pakistan and Kenya. Communicating the gospel is ever the focus of my efforts. In Pakistan and Kenya, Mark preached nearly every day in crusades of various sizes. I have seen tens of thousands of people commit their lives to Jesus. Having witnessed these results, Mark was inspired to write a booklet for immediate follow-up. It has been given to over 20,000 new believers in Kenya and Pakistan.

More recently, this ministry has taken on the task of organizing pastors and congregations into an association that works together to evangelize people, lead them in follow-up efforts, organize them into small groups, and use the small groups to grow congregations. This effort has been used to start new churches and revive existing ones.

The main countries of this ministry are now: Vietnam, Pakistan, and Kenya. Mark’s speaking ministry includes expository preaching, biblical instruction, pastor education, believer discipleship, personal evangelism, and Christian apologetics.
