La Mesa Campesina - Paperback

by Thelma Herrera Flores (Author)

What does your congregation have to do with those invisible people who pick the crops that feed your family? Rev. Dr. Thelma Herrera Flores, the daughter and granddaughter of Campesinos, believes that anyone--clergy or lay--can reach this population with the love of God. In this book, Flores uses classical and contemporary sources to develop a Campesino theology that is practical and informative. A six-week-long curriculum is included for use in churches or other faith-based organizations.
