“… may my blood be the seed of liberty and the sign that hope will soon be a reality.”
Archbishop Oscar Romero
Assassinated March 24, 1980
Archbishop Oscar Romero of El Salvador was gunned down as he celebrated the Eucharist. One day before, in an impassioned plea, he called on soldiers and members of the security forces to obey their consciences and the law of God that says, “Do not kill!” and to end the repression.
