[image: image.png] opening thoughts: Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero (15 August 1917 – 24 March 1980) Romero is also one of the ten 20th-century martyrs depicted in statues above the Great West Door of Westminster Abbey <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westminster_Abbey> in London.
In 1980, Romero was shot by an assassin while celebrating Mass <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_(liturgy)>. Though no one was ever convicted for the crime, investigations by the UN-created Truth Commission for El Salvador <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_Commission_for_El_Salvador> concluded that Major Roberto D’Aubuisson <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roberto_D%27Aubuisson>, a death squad <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_squads_in_El_Salvador> leader and later founder of the right-wing Nationalist Republican Alliance <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalist_Republican_Alliance> (ARENA) political party, had ordered the killing.[5] <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93scar_Romero#cite_note-5>
In 1997, Pope John Paul II <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_John_Paul_II> bestowed upon Romero the title of Servant of God <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servant_of_God#Catholic_Church>, and a cause for his beatification <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatification> was opened by the church. The cause stalled but was reopened by Pope Benedict XVI <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Benedict_XVI> in 2012. Romero was declared a martyr <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martyr> by Pope Francis <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Francis> on 3 February 2015, paving the way for his beatification on 23 May 2015. During Romero’s beatification, Pope Francis declared that his “ministry was distinguished by his particular attention to the most poor and marginalized.”[6] <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93scar_Romero#cite_note-6> Pope Francis canonized <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonization> Romero on 14 October 2018. PRESENTE! “This is what we are about: We plant seeds that one day will grow. We water seeds already planted, knowing that they hold future promise. We lay foundations that will need further development. We provide yeast that produces effects beyond our capabilities. We cannot do everything and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something and to do it very well. It may be incomplete, but it is a beginning, a step along the way, an opportunity for God’s grace to enter and do the rest. We may never see the end results, but that is the difference between the master builder and the worker. We are workers, not master builders, ministers, not messiahs. We are prophets of a future not our own.” ~ Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero ~ (assassinated in San Salvador on March 24, 1980) part one: Why extreme violence in the US has police trying new tactics CS Monitor reporter Patrik Jonsson The Attitude with Arnie Arnesen opening thoughts:Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero (15 August 1917 – 24 March 1980) producers: Dave Scott and Stepthanie Collins Chloé LaCasse (the best of the attitude) streaming live at wnhnfm.org noon & 7pm EST on the dial-94.7FM Concord NH podcasts available at podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/attitude-with-arnie-arnesen/id1634055179 opening thoughts: Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero (15 August 1917 – 24 March 1980) Romero is also one of the ten 20th-century martyrs depicted in statues above the Great West Door of Westminster Abbey <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westminster_Abbey> in London.
