Meet Jim Backes. A Mobile native. McGill grad. Notre Dame alum. And long time engineer with Hargrove. Listen to see how the Lord called him into prison ministry. It was a surprise to him and those involved with the ministry. Marvel at the mutual impact the Lord has wrought on both Jim and those he serves. See how this also has led him to be involved with Ransom Ministries—a non-profit in Mobile inspired very much by the example of Fr. Greg Boyle from our previous episode.
Dig In Further:
Have you ever really experienced the personal love that God has for you? If so, have you allowed it to become central in your life? If not, consider asking the Lord to reveal to you how much he loves and care for you in a direct and personal way. This experience really changed the course of Jim’s life.
Touched by the love of God, we can’t help but love our neighbor. How might the Lord be asking you to love your neighbor? Is there a ministry at your parish for which you could volunteer? Maybe a non-profit where you could volunteer?
Ask the Lord to show you were you are needed. For Jim, prison ministry was an assignment from the Lord that came to him as a surprise! What surprising task might the Lord have held out for you?
