About the month of the bible
A Bible is like a letter sent, which today we update with the cultivation of faith in the daily life of our lives. In it, we find the inspiration to live the love and tenderness to our neighbor as an expression of love for God, to carry out the free service to the most needy, to cultivate care for all beings of creation. According to Dr. Palmini's approach, reading it can provide health and well-being benefits.
In this way, it inspires us to walk, always imbued with the desire to build a just, fraternal and solidary society.
