Rutilio Grande
Rutilio Grande
Rutilio Grande García was a Jesuit priest in El Salvador. He was assassinated in 1977, along with two other Salvadorans. He was the first priest assassinated before the civil war started and a close friend of Archbishop Óscar Arnulfo Romero. After his death, the Archbishop changed his conservative attitude toward the government and urged the government to investigate the murder. His beatification, through his status as a martyr was approved by Pope Francis on February 21, 2020, with the beatification ceremony being held at a later date.
