UN ENCUENTRO CON LA INNOVACIÓN
Nos encontramos con la familia Singh en In-dia, donde una madre y un padre están usando técnicas de cultivo innovadoras para alimentar a su familia en medio de una inundación. ¿Cómo es que Dios nos invita a pensar fuera de la caja en servicio a los demás en esta Cua-resma?
