Today is the Cornwall Alliance Day of Prayer for the Environment and the Poor!

We chose today because it is Norman Borlaug’s birthday. Dr. Borlaug is known as “The Man Who Fed the World” because of his work increasing crop yields. To learn more about his life click here. For a recent article by Dr. James Wanliss regarding Borlaug, click here.
