Oscar romero movie questions


[MEMRES-5]...

 

Think about these questions as you watch Romero,  and jot down on this sheet some brief responses to them.  Print this sheet out, put your ID# at the top and hand it in either tonight after the movie, or (if you watch the copy on reserve some other time) turn it in under my office door by 10:00 on Thursday morning.
 

  • Keep track in this movie of what Romero and Fr.

    Grandé and the poor of El Salvador are saying about God, the Bible, and especially about the life and teachings of Jesus Christ as they affect the situation in El Salvador and serve to motivate those in the Church involved in the struggle for justice.  Note down some of the things Romero and the others say about these things.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  • According to Romero’s first homily as archbishop, what is the role of the Church in the problems of civil society?  How is that message received by those in power?
