Movie, Dinner, and Discussion

Come watch and discuss this moving film together. When Oscar Romero was named Archbishop of El Salvador, he was a conservative from the ruling class. But over time his faith and love inspired a conversion experience. His unyielding stand for the poor and against violence, confronting the military regime, finally led to his assassination.
