| Mass to Remember the Jesuit Martyrs of Central America |
Mass to Remember the Jesuit Martyrs of Central America Thursday, November 15th
5:05 PM
St. Francis Chapel
On November 16, 1989 the Jesuit martyrs of El Salvador and their two companions were dragged out of their home and violently killed. The men worked as professors and administrators at the University of Central America (UCA) and were assassinated for speaking out on behalf of the economically poor, the most vulnerable in society. Thousands of El Salvadoran people died along with them throughout the 10 year civil war that plagued the country.
Following the mass will be a brief commissioning service for those students traveling to Columbus, Georgia to protest the U.S. Army institute formerly known as the "U.S. Army School of the Americas".
Each year a group of John Carroll University students, faculty, and staff travel to Columbus, GA to represent JCU at the Ignatian Family Teach-In and protest calling for the close of the School of the Americas. To learn more about the groups trip click here. |
