Farmworker union organizer and crossbearer,  Lupe Murguia, has led the religious procession and now stands with the priests on stage who make ready to officiate at the Catholic Mass. Franciscan priest, Mark Day, will say the Mass and to his left stands Father David Duran, a priest of the Diocese of Fresno and a former CPA who supervised the books of accounting and the audits of the farmworker movement.
