Photos of Memorial for Civilians killed in the war



Here are some photos of the Memorial for unarmed non-combatant civilians killed in the Salvadorean civil war. I wrote about my first visit to this monument in this blog in an entry on 08.01.08, if you want to read about it. I took these photos this past Sunday, after attending the "popular mass" in the crypt of the Metropolitan Cathedral in San Salvador, where Monsenor (Archbishop) Romero is enterred. The mass is "the political mass," in the style of Liberation Theology and uses parts of Romero's homilies as a "jumping-off" point. Bueno, here are the pictures, above. I plan to post more later, of the besutiful mural!
