There are certain individuals who manage to transcend the contradictions and confusion of their times and enter into the realm of pure grace. Bishop Casaldáliga wrote, “Kept at a distance by curia officials and colleagues, how Romero must have suffered through his agony!” Certainly, his martyrdom was God’s imprimatur on his life and witness, although its cruelty and tragedy was profound. His martyrdom was both a prophetic event and a sign of resurrection in these dark times.
