Mark Prather entered the mortgage industry in 1978 and quickly established his own company by 1981.

In the mid-80s, Mark merged with Mid-Cities Mortgage, began the franchising of Mark 1 Mortgage, built up the company, and eventually terminated the corporate partnership by selling the mortgage banking company.

Mark then established a new Mark 1 Mortgage company. As president and broker, he rebuilt Mark 1 Mortgage back to more than 100 loan officers. He later added the Mark 1 Real Estate Wealth Academy division to the company, where he provides quality wealth growth education through online events, podcasts, and one-on-one consultations.  Information: https://www.m1m.com/

At this critical point in world history, with secular attacks on patriarchy, fatherhood, masculinity and the family, we need St. Joseph more than ever.  St. Joseph, Protector of the Church, was given a key role especially for these times to intervene on behalf of the Church Militant.  For all struggles against the devil, the flesh and the world, St. Joseph is the "go to” saint to whom we, as faithful Catholics, need a stronger devotion.  We are proud sponsors of Deacon Steve Greco and the entire team at Spirit Filled Hearts Ministry for this Saint Joseph Summit.  Information: www.bhhscalifornia.com
