Mark Nelson – Steubenville Renewal and Testimony “Thank you everyone, born in moved to different states as a child and teen with his family to work with inner city poor- within men’s home nursing homes soup kitchens, have been mugged a few time and got around, 9th grade moved to WV and built homes, and 10th grade moved to Steubenville, where he went to Catholic Central after graduation he then went to Franciscan and began wood working with crosses in which he stayed in Steubenville manufacturing as Nelsons Fine Art, 2009 bought school and then began investing in the city, isolated themselves outside the city previously on the farm but then Teresa wanted to fix grand theater and started to go to the city council meetings and in 2011 he brought projects to the council to be fixed around the city but was rejected so he went to Bill Johnson and Johnson told him he had to make a difference in the city before state could be involve and he would have to become political involved therefore he became involved with the water and soil division to provide resources locally. “How do we have faith in our future?” Steubenville has a long history of revitalizing itself. In 1942 a book was written 12 against the underworld –the children are the future and building a place for them is what it about. Many are immigrants, many different reasons to come and bring with us standards and values, and this will be our children’s’, both the city of Steubenville and the university of Steubenville and they are what makes Steubenville exist, it shows that interaction between organizations is crucial, it encourages us to remake the city and solve the problems, full of prayer, beauty, love, the things that make us humans, all of us have to do our parts and we may ask when are they going to fix it and we are they and it is citizenship and we are missionaries, hold everyone accountable and sometimes it may be ugly or it may be creative but we’re all in it. The young generation to rebuild, many different shops, but we give it our all. “Briefly share about how you met your wife—Invited to go pray in front of an abortion clinic during the year 1987 and he went to stand to provide more time to talk to ladies before abortion to give them other options and there was light and dark and there was such an impact that he was never the same and the police were dragging people away. He usually videotaped or gave meals being underage but when he became 18 he was a part of Operation Rescue -largest peaceful demonstration in the US, launched prolife, now it’s a federal offense to stand in front, was sentenced to a year in solitary in Pittsburgh then traveled all over for prolife, officially met in the north side of Pittsburgh lock up, went to prison for another year, and became involved in jail ministry and worked with men, able to bring light. They ministered in funerals by collecting babies outs of dumpsters and to give the unborn names and show love. This is a conviction of what youth can do. He was 17 when he started, 18 when he was arrested reformed at 22. While he was charged with felonies he was not convicted of felonies.
