Pastor Collins as Washington
by PEARLIE BUSHONG, News-View Editor
(Posted Thu 10:01 am)
Pastor Mark Collins of First Baptist Church plays the role of George Washington in his spare time. Yorktown’s newest pastor, Mark Collins of the First Baptist Church, has portrayed George Washington from the National Cathedral to the Capitol in Austin. He has been a guest speaker with audiences of 20,000 to the Governors Prayer Breakfast. He also appeared in four films as George Washington.
“I have been in the ministry for 14 years and a reenactment actor for nine years,” Rev. Collins said.
When a friend saw the life mask made of George Washington by Jean-Antoine Houdon in plaster, October 1785, he remarked about the resemblance between George Washington and Rev. Collins.
