  • Blessed Oscar Romero, Destined to Be ‘
    Blessed Oscar Romero, destined to be ‘the saint of silence’? For Francisco Rico-Martinez, Archbishop Oscar Romero may well be the saint of silence. Archbishop Oscar Romero in 1979 As a young law student at the University of El Salvador, Rico met twice with Romero to talk with him about people who were disappearing as the right-wing, military government cracked down on unions, peasants and students in 1979. “For me at that particular moment, Romero was too conservative for me. Romero was not a revolutionary,” recalled Rico, who came to Toronto from El Salvador as a refugee. But for the radical young students, even a conservative Romero was useful because he could challenge the government. The archbishop had turned parts of the San Salvador cathedral complex over to campesinos — poor farmers — who were flooding the city looking for refuge from a rampaging army as the country descended into what would be a 12-year civil war that killed more than 75,000 people. His sermons on Sunday mornings were broadcast live, nationally on the radio. It was the one media outlet the army could not censor or intimidate. What went into those Sunday sermons was long days spent listening to delegations and individuals who came to their archbishop looking for help finding their missing family members or hoping to bury their dead. “What impressed me was his silence,” Rico said. “So he was listening.
