gifted worship leader, a passionate missionary and a beloved friend who
spent his life telling others about the love of God. Jimmy had one life
message: love. He truly understood what it meant to live with compassion
and purpose, motivated by God’s love to give hope to the world. Jimmy
was known to say, “It takes a lot of love to live” and the winners of
this essay contest follow his example of impacting their communities for
Christ. Please take time to read more about Jimmy’s life and legacy at
