Day 4 - 2nd day in San Salvador


Chapel at UCA (University of Central America)
Mons. Romero & Martyr´s Museum
Artist: Fernando Llort


Photos of several martyrs including the four American nuns who were raped and killed.


In the Hall of Martyrs.
Artifacts of Ratilio Grande who's assassination
was the catalyst for Mons. Romero´s activism.


The rose garden where 6 Jesuit priests and a mother and child
were murdered by a military death squad. 
The garden was planted by the husband and father in honor of ALL victims of the atrocity.


Lunch at the soy cooperative (AS IF  we had any appetite!)


Our group with Representitive Lourdes Palacios at the National Assembly.
She is perhaps the strongest voice for the people's rights
and a former freedom-fighter for the FMLN (the party who fought against the military junta)
