Working tirelessly for the rights of farmworkers and immigrants, Chávez co-founded the National Farm Workers Association in 1962 in collaboration with Dolores Huerta, which became the first successful farm workers union in the United States. Moreover, Chávez was a champion for nonviolent social change, education and consumer rights.
César Chávez used the Virgin of Guadalupe during his battle for farmworkers' rights. He and those protesting with him carried the emblem of the Virgin to provide support and to save them from oppression.

“No other single Catholic moment touched on race, labor and politics in such a profound way. On March 10, 1968, at an outdoor Mass in the small agricultural town of Delano, Calif., the farmworker union leader Cesar Chavez ended a 25-day hunger strike by receiving the body of Christ,”

“Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts? Look at my
hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, because a ghost does not
have flesh and bones as you can see I have.” —Luke 24:38-39
When we feel alone or unable to handle problems, we often rely on our own strength.
But Jesus wants us to return to him with all our heart and find the strength we need in
HIM. The wounds he shows us in today’s gospel remind us that he would do anything
to help us. It’s hard to let go because we want to be in control and do things our way.
Sometimes we must be quiet to hear Jesus answer us and give us the love that will
build our trust in him.
Dear Lord, sometimes when I am troubled, it is easier to feel sorry for myself and turn to
comforts instead of you. Please give me the desire I need to turn to you in those times to
receive your great love and compassion.
