Liverpool: Service of Choral Evensong to mark Romero anniversary

Source: Romero Trust

An Ecumenical Service of Choral Evening Prayer will be held at Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral on Thursday 14 October at 6pm, to mark the third anniversary of St Oscar Romero's canonisation in Rome in 2018.

Archbishop Malcolm McMahon will preside. The service will include the presentation to the Cathedral by the Archbishop Romero Trust of a first class relic of Archbishop Romero - being an infinitesimally small fragment from his rib bone.

Dr Jan Graffius will speak about the relic and its provenance and Fr Stephen Pritchard will speak about Romero and Liverpool, following his relatively recent visit with CAFOD to the holy places associated with St Romero in El Salvador.
