...the greatest measure of gratitude that i have is to my Heavenly Father - for providing salvation through His Son, Jesus - and for the opportunity to serve Him in rodeo...i began this bullfighting venture because of His calling for me to be a servant to the rodeo community...the credit for all that i have been able to accomplish goes to Him...i am humbly grateful for this privilege...i am blessed beyond what i deserve...

...and i pray that every person will discover the joy of living for Jesus...He is a constant and true companion...giving your heart and your life to Him is the best decision you will ever make...
grace and peace,
j mark
