Welcome to Heart to Heart Ministry

Heart to Heart was founded by the late Fr. Jim Willig in 1991, primarily to name and describe the parish missions that he was preaching once a month throughout the diocese of Cincinnati. His daily example of what it means to be a true follower of Jesus Christ has led many others to join him on his faith journey. His first book, Inspiration, has helped many who are suffering. His next book, Lessons from the School of Suffering, written with Tammy Bundy, describes his struggles as he was diagnosed with and battled stage IV renal cell cancer.

Heart to Heart is dedicated to spreading the “Good News” of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the four corners of the earth. The Lord has provided us with marvelous instruments to use in spreading His “Good News” of the Gospel and of Holy Scripture through the world wide web, audiocassettes, CDs, videotapes, DVD’s and books.
