This past week, the Holy Cross Junior Class took part in a service retreat focusing on social justice. Both groups worked in the San Antonio Food Bank garden weeding two gardens, harvesting broccoli and strawberries, and clearing fields. They got a small glimpse at what it is to work hard for meager wages and little appreciation. By the end of the retreat, the students found a new understanding of all that goes on behind the scenes to provide all that they have on their tables.
