A Model For The Church Today: Monseñor Oscar Romero, Kelly Benitez
Celebrating Scholarship & Creativity Day (2011-2017)
This paper explores how Archbishop Oscar Romero serves as a model for the church today. It examines his efforts to become a voice for the voiceless and to demonstrate how care for the poor lies at the heart of what it means to be a Christian. Ultimately this paper argues that Romero fits the criteria for sainthood because he truly exemplified what it means to be a follower of Christ.
