In the summer of 2012, a food crisis struck West Africa in a region called the Sahel. Particularly hard-hit was Niger. This week, we are joined by Kelly Di Domenico of the Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace to tell us how they are responding to the crisis and we also learn about the film, A New Leaf that tells the story. Fr. Thomas Rosica, CSB offers a reflection for the second Sunday in Lent, Cheridan reports from the Religious Education Congress in LA and we meet singer/songwriter, Donna Cori Gibson who tells us about her album, The Way of the Cross: A Song for Each Station.
