Spoke to the man who had been
Sitting beside me.
"You and your wife are the ones who
Go on work projects, right?"
"Yes," he answered, "and we're leaving in
A week to go to Barbuda to assist
Samaritan's Purse."
I'd never heard of the spot.
I learned that the couple has
Already traveled to Puerto Rico, Texas and
France just this year.
"How did you get involved?" I asked.
"My dad made the same kind of trips.
He's my inspiration. I follow in his
Footsteps."
And Mark is following in Jesus' footsteps too.
I felt humbled in his presence.
"You model what the church should be.
You put your faith into action and you
Make a difference. I applaud you.
I admire you."
"Just pray for us," he said.
And his wife gave me some specific
Requests.
I can't go to Barbuda, but by
Praying for Mark and Jan I can still be
Part of the action.
