Mark was born in Chicago, Illinois and then moved to a rough neighborhood in Aurora, Illinois where fighting everyday was the norm.  Thus, his dad decided to move the family to Spokane when Mark was nine years old. 

 

While playing a poker game in his Junior year at the University of Nebraska a man shared Christ with Mark and he trusted Christ as his savior.  That man discipled Mark by writing him a personal letter every month for 43 years before going to heaven.  About that time Mark was drafted into the Army and served two years as a Military Policeman.

​

After graduating from college, Mark worked at Circle Boy's Ranch - a Christian Group Home near Spokane.  While there he met his sweetheart Cindy Heilsberg (soon to become Cindy Lewis.)   Cindy had become a Christian at the tender age o nine at a camp meeting.  Subsequently, Mark completed his Seminary education at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Chicago.

​

Mark and Cindy have two children. Matt and Kristi.  They each have a daughter and more on the way.  Mark worked at Spokane County Juvenile Court for 39 years, managing the Probation Department and at other times the Detention Facility.  The Couple joined Trinity Baptist Church in the late 1980's and have served in various capacities since that time.
