On Oscar Romero
"Oscar Romero was converted by suffering:
the suffering of a friend, of the people he served, and then finally his own suffering. There are many ways to be converted, but perhaps the best way is to live among the poor, and to discover in them as Romero did, the presence of Christ."
-Samuel Ruiz Garcia, Bishop of San Cristobal, Chiapas Mexico
*From the Gallery of 20th century martyrs at Westminster Abbey-
Mother Elizabeth of Russia, Revd. Martin Luther King, Archbishop Oscar Romero and Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer
