Our family has lived and ministered in Asia since 2006. Mark is involved in leadership training on an individual level and through teaching at a local seminary. Our platform in Asia is a translation company that we have established in our local city. This "business" supplies us with a legal visa and enables the translation and publication (print and/or online) of biblical materials, Christian books, and Bible commentaries into the local language. Charity often hosts friends in our home, disciples women, encourages young mothers, and helps with the music ministry at our local church. We are so thankful for the five daughters with whom God has blessed us: Grace, Elizabeth, Anna, Lydia, and Faith.

We thank you for your interest and prayers for us, our ministry, and our family. We desire to accomplish in our family and in those to whom we minister what Paul expressed in Colossians 1:28: And we proclaim Him, admonishing every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, that we may present every man complete in Christ.

Prayer Requests:

1. Pray for selfless attitudes as we serve and minister.
2. Pray for the churches, pastors, and students with whom we are involved. Pray that they would be growing in their knowledge of the Lord and faithfully proclaiming His Word.
3. Pray for wisdom and perseverance for our translators. Also pray that we would continue to find capable/qualified translators.
4. Pray for wisdom for the doctors as they try to control epileptic seizures in our eldest daughter.
5. Pray that our children, as well as those we have seen come to Christ, would continue to manifest a true faith and remain steadfast in their love for Christ and spiritual walk.
