In spring 2006, they went on a mission trip with http://www.jamesfund.org/ The James Fund, a non-profit organization founded by Family Christian Stores . The purpose of the trip was to meet the needs of orphans and widows in distress. Mark's own adoption drew him to explore this ministry and to engage in active support of The James Fund.
