Sumpul, River of Infants Downstream from El Salvador, a Honduran fisherman as if to a storm. He cried out to Jesus The fisherman rose to his work. Tenderly Shortly after our return, I had the privilege of writing the Daily Reflection for Creighton’s online ministry for November 16, the 20th anniversary of the assassinations of six Jesuits and their two companions at the University of Central America in San Salvador. Here is the link to that reflection: http://onlineministries.creighton.edu/CollaborativeMinistry/Archive/2009/111609.html A visit to El Salvador such as a dozen Creighton colleagues and I made in October is a powerful reminder that the cross did not originally appear in 24-carat gold. We do Jesus no honor by such misremembering.
