In October 2007 Mark and I embarked on a journey to bring home two siblings from Ethiopia. Though it started out as a personal journey, through the next 13 months we began a greater journey to advocate for the 143 million orphans around the world.

In January 2009 Mark joined World Orphans as the West Coast Regional Director of Orphan Advocacy. His job is to help individuals and churches in the U.S. partner with indigenious churches around the world as they care for orphans.
