A Prophetic Bishop Speaks to His People
This final volume of the series contains the 19 homilies that Archbishop Romero delivered between December 9, 1979, and March 24, 1980, the day on which he was murdered while celebrating the Eucharist. It was a time of mounting violence and near anarchy in El Salvador. As the military rulers and their right-wing death squads strove to repress both the strengthening guerrilla forces and the surging grassroots organizations, Romero warned the nation repeatedly in his preaching about the danger of civil war.

This volume is the third in an ambitious initiative by the Romero Trust and Convivium Press to provide English translations of a series of books about the martyred Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero.

Archbishop Oscar Romero was assassinated on 24th March 1980 while celebrating the eucharist.

Come in “Sancta Teresia Benedicta a Cruce” e in “Gherardo Della Porta”, l’autrice, introduce il lettore in medias res: Romero, come Maria ai piedi della Croce, innalza il suo umanissimo carme di dolore. Il tempo è quello dell’attesa angosciante, snervante, dilaniante di un destino di morte annunciata: “Minacce di morte incombono/su di voi. Da ogni parte si prepara l’agguato, si trama…” Eppure, in fondo al cuore, la speran...
