Mark Hawkins has been the Business Administrator at Twin Oaks since November 2006. Mark is responsible for the financial and business operations of the church as well as the facility and grounds. In addition, Mark can often be found in the kitchen washing pans for his wife, Shawnee, who prepares fellowship meals for the church.
Mark graduated from Northwest Missouri State University with a degree in finance and spent 20 years in the investment field. After working part-time in the finance office for several years, Mark became Business Administrator in November 2006. Mark considers it a privilege to serve in a church that has been so instrumental in developing his faith. Mark was responding to God's calling when he began attending Twin Oaks in the spring of 1994. The teaching made the Bible more understandable and everything clicked into place for Mark at that time.
The Lord has blessed Mark in numerous ways. He and Shawnee have enjoyed 27 years of marriage and have two children. God has provided believing spouses for both children and has also blessed them with 3 grandchildren. It is truly a joy for Mark to see his entire family worshipping at Twin Oaks. When not at the church, Marks enjoys hiking, reading, Cardinal baseball and of course spending time with his three grandchildren.
