Some people think that my preaching is political and provokes violence... They forget that the voice of the Church is not inventing the evils that exist in the world; it is simply shedding light on them —St Oscar Romero, 4th Sunday of Lent (C), 1980 #StOscarRomero

Without being aware of it, we have become individually polarised, bound to a pole of fixed ideas, incapable of reconciliation, filled with mortal hatred. This is not the reality God wants —St Oscar Romero, 4th Sunday of Lent (C), 1980 #StOscarRomero

If only we could see Christ in the needy, in the tortured, in the prisoner, in the murder victim... we would gather that precious treasure with tenderness; we would kiss them and never be ashamed of them —St Oscar Romero, 4th Sunday of Lent (C), 1980 #StOscarRomero

🙏 Saint Oscar Romero was shot on this day in 1980. His commitment to speaking out for poor and marginalised communities in El Salvador ultimately resulted in his assassination. We are immensely proud that he was a friend and partner of ours.

"The rich must be critical amid their own surroundings of affluence: why they are wealthy and why next door there are so many poor. A wealthy Christian will find there the beginning of conversion, in a personal questioning: why am I rich and all around me so many that hunger?" St. Oscar Romero

Congar described the creation of the YCW as: “One of the most emblematic events of our time, in which we find a prophetic initiative from the periphery... leading to the consecration of his new movement by the Pope, who was himself also animated with a prophetic spirit.”
