NFWM Reissues 2007 Lenten Reflection Booklet

National Farm Worker Ministry is reissuing our Lenten Booklet we first published in 2007. The reflections in this booklet may contain some dated reference, the Iraq War and the freezes that damaged citrus crops in California in 2007, however the insights and wisdom remain relevant. We offer these again for your reflection during this Lenten season 2015.
