Deaon Mike Vandiver has dedicated much of his life to serving the Catholic Church and finding ways to offer his efforts in service of those who have been abandoned. Bishop Burbidge recently asked Deacon Vandiver to take charge of the diocesan prison ministry with the goal of expanding outreach and the Sacraments to as many prisons as possible. Deacon Vandiver sat down for an interview about some of the common issues faced by prisoners, how the Church calls us to balance forgiveness with justice, and what he needs to spread the Gospel to those society has largely forgotten.
