POPE Francis has given the go-ahead for assassinated Archbishop Oscar Romero to be made a saint, with the Vatican announcing today that Francis had “confirmed a miracle” involving him.
Romero, bishop of San Salvador, was murdered by right-wing death squads in 1980 while performing Mass in a hospital chapel in El Salvador.
He has been hailed for standing up for El Salvador’s poorest amid violent government repression. The Pope said that Romero should serve as a model for modern Catholics.
