Ep 25 | Jim Bok | Becoming a Missionary at 61
Fr. Jim Bok lived an "ordinary" friar life. He worked at a school, then raised money for the friars in the development office, things that many friars set out to do. Then, at 61, when many are starting to look forward to retirement, he decided to become a missionary to Jamaica. He never regreted any of his 16 years there.
Fr. Tito and Fr. Casey are Franciscan friars and Catholic priests. Each week, we interview another Franciscan and hear their incredible stories of faith, trial, and comedy.
