Founder's Bio

Mark Williamson is the Founder and President of Foundation Restoration Ministries/Federal Intercessors, and works with a network of intercessors, prophets, apostles, and governmental leaders called to restore the nation - culturally and governmentally - to our Biblical foundation.

Mark has had broad experience in radio broadcasting, as a corporate pilot, a technical writer, and as a technical writing department manager for one of the nation's largest computer manufacturers. He has been a member of Encourager Church of Houston for over 17 years, and before beginning this ministry, led the intercession ministry there for over 6 years, and was a long-time member of the worship team.

Mark has been a guest host of a local Christian talk show, and broadcast a series of radio commentaries on America's founding principles and current issues. He has appeared on the local TBN affiliate (Houston), and God's Learning Channel, a five-state network and world-wide statellite broadcast ministry based in Midland, Texas.

He has traveled nationally as a conference ministry-team member and internationally on mission trips and prayer/spiritual warfare journeys to nations such as India, Turkey, Italy, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. He has also traveled to 20 state Capitols on intercessory assignments, prophesying and declaring truth and righteousness into state governments. In March of 2009, he gave testimony before the Texas State Senate, and in March of 2011, before a Texas House Committee.

Federal Intercessors is a national network of intercessors interceding for, and prophesying over, the nation and our civil government. Capitol Hill is increasingly a mission field focus for Mark. He travels to Washington regularly to intercede in the city, and to meet with a substantial and growing number of Congressmen and Senators for ministerial counsel and personal prayer ministry. Mark had the high honor of a White House invitation in June of 2007 where he attended President Bush’s Veto announcement of the Embryonic Stem Cell Research Bill. He strategically prayer-walked the West Wing on September 11, 2007, and again on September 11, 2008. On February 17, 2011, he served as the Guest Chaplain of the U. S. House of Representatives, opening the day's session in prayer.       (www.c-spanvideo.org/program/HouseSession4011).
