About Chaplain Mark
I have worked in the fields of home health care, hospice, rehabilitation, head injury recovery, and police auxiliary counseling for over 25 years. With a Master's degree in Christian Counseling, I bring both professional training and real-world experience to pastoral care. Throughout these years, I've learned that people don't need perfect theology or sterile environments to find healing—they need someone willing to sit with them in their pain without judgment. Whether in a hospital room, a family's living room, or beside someone facing their darkest hour, I've witnessed the profound transformation that happens when people feel truly heard. My role isn't to have all the answers, but to create sacred space where you can bring your authentic self—your doubts, fears, anger, and brokenness—before a God who sees beyond our masks. After decades of walking with people through life's most challenging moments, I remain convinced that healing begins not with fixing, but with faithful presence. This is why I describe my ministry as "a hospital for the soul"—a place where wounds can be acknowledged, tended, and gradually healed through divine grace and human compassion.
