Today: Remembering Blessed Oscar Romero

Today, March 24, we remember the life and death of Blessed Oscar Romero, who was martyred while celebrating Mass. As archbishop of San Salvador, he called for an end to the violence and killing of civilians during El Salvador’s civil war, which lasted from 1979 until 1992.
