Meet Father Mark

Father Mark brings a passion for caring for people, thoughtful preaching, and leading with purpose. Before joining Good Shepherd, he served as CEO of West Houston Assistance Ministries (WHAM), an organization focused on helping families build stability through food, housing support, clothing, and financial education. His ministry is rooted in hospitality, compassion, and helping people grow in faith through prayer, learning, and serving others. We’re grateful for the energy and vision he brings and excited to grow together in Christ.

A New Season for Good Shepherd

Father Mark is the 5th rector in Good Shepherd’s 50-year history in Kingwood. He follows the Rev. William Richter, who retired in 2024. After accepting our call in January, Father Mark and his family are now preparing to join us fully. Please keep them in your prayers during this transition.

You Are Welcome Here – No Exceptions

With God’s help, we continue to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and invite all people into a loving, supportive community. Wherever you are on your faith journey – even if you’re unsure where you stand – you are welcome at Good Shepherd.
