Remembering Romero

Over the years, we have shared many posts about Archbishop -- now Saint -- Oscar Arnulfo Romero, who was murdered while celebrating Mass in El Salvador on March 24, 1980.  Today, on his Feast Day -- the first since his canonization in October 2018 -- we share something very simple and brief from Franciscan Media.  Click here to access a multimedia resource about the life of Saint Oscar Romero.

Let us pray:  God of power and mercy, who have granted to Bishop Oscar Romero to give his life while celebrating the Eucharist, in a supreme act of love for you, grant us, we ask of you, that as you gave him the grace to imitate Christ's suffering by his death, may we, by following in your martyr's footsteps, gain eternal life.  Amen.
