Remembering Cesar Chavez

Remembering Cesar Chavez by MSW. MGB: Chavez is a patron of day laborers and migrant farmers everywhere.  Some forget that the word most people translate as the carpenter's son was really the word for day laborers who work in the fields or nowadays on construction projects, congregating at 7-11s to work for the day.  Jesus was one of those people for most of his life.  What set him apart was a thirst for Scripture and a heart full of love, along with the faith to believe what he read, including the courage to accept those passages that applied to himself.
