Oscar Romero

Oscar Romero was a martyr who was beatified by Pope Francis on 23rd of May 2015. He was born on August 15th 1917 in Ciudad Barrios, El Salvador. Oscar was a voice for the voiceless and spoke against poverty, social injustice, assassinations and torture.  It was later found out that Major Roberto D’Aubuisson had ordered Oscar’s death. Oscar had convinced 5 radio stations to broadcast his preachings and sermons, but this radio station was blown up by the government in order to stop spreading his word. He was silenced on the 23rd of March 1980 while celebrating mass, after ordering the army to stop killing people and to “stop the repression”. Rutilio Grande was a close friend of Oscar’s, they knew each other from preacher training. Rutilio was assassinated in 1977 by the hands of Salvadoran paramilitary soldiers and was the first priest to be assassinated before the civil war began. After Rutilio’s death Oscar had a passion, he decided to have a change of heart and decided to see things in a different perspective by standing up for poor people by speaking against the government.

Oscar organised peace marches, speeches and blessings for the needy. He made the wealthy and the government enraged by spreading the Christian word of peace. Oscar Romero knew that his life was at risk, but he was willing to face these risks in order to protect those who needed it most.

More than 50,000 people gathered outside San Salvador Cathedral to pay their last respects to Oscar Romero. In anger the army fired at the crowd killing 30 people and leaving hundreds severely injured. After his death El Salvador was turned into civil war which lasted 12 years. It was named “Genocidal” (a war that claimed more than 75,000 lives) by the United Nations Truth Commision.

Before & After Vatican 2



Pre Vatican II
After Vatican II
Mass said in Latin.
Mass said in local language.
Women never had a role in mass.
Women could now take roles in mass.
(e.g Eucharist, Offertory).
Priests were authorized to turn away from the congregation to face the Lord (The cross).
They are now able to preach face to face with the congregation.
Before the vatican, the whole world used to sing the same hymns every mass.
In mass they were now allowed to sing different hymns in their choice of language.
In the past, most Catholic schools were educated by nuns and priests.
Nowadays, they changed the rule so more experienced teachers are to give better education towards the children.
Everyone was to dress their best for mass.
Now, their dress code is whatever they choose.

The Treaty of Waitangi


  The Treaty of Waitangi  


The Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 by representatives of the Maori chiefs and the  European Crown. It was signed in a place called Waitangi which is in the Bay of Islands. The Europeans wanted control and mana over the the Maori land and they eventually sent William Hobson to announce British sovereignty over New Zealand.  After the Treaty was signed the Government wanted more land for the British settlers to live on. So there was a war between the Government and the Maori who wanted to retain their land. The Europeans developed their own administration that excluded the Maori, and by 1860 all of the South Island and ⅕ of the North Island was taken by the government or settlers. The Maori were not given any seats in Parliament, until the law changed in 1867 when the Maori were now included in Parliament but were only given 4 seats. By 1845 the Land Wars began, when the government sent British troops into the King Country to take their land by force.


The British Crown and settlers committed group sin against the Maori by dishonouring the Treaty of Waitangi. One example of this is the promise that was broken by the Europeans by not allowing the Maori to have ownership and control their lands and lives. Another example of this is the Execution and the detention of prisoners without trial which caused resentment and anger.


Christian people can restore tika (truth) and pono (justice) to the Treaty of Waitangi by learning the Maori language including teaching maori to students in schools. We could also increase the importance of Maori customs and culture, for example greeting each other with a hongi, removing shoes and respecting tapu when you enter a marae.
